I have an incoming call on one channel coming into asterisk, and I'm forwarding the call using Dial on several other channels such as to reach a cell phone and work. I don't want the caller ID that has been assigned to the outbound SIP or IAX account to show up on the cell phone but the callerid of the original incoming caller.

This could never have accomplished anything, since those two references affect the exact same variable internally.

because I want the outgoing callerid that I forward to not be the normal callerid of the local extension but I want to forward the incoming callerid. Now that CALLERIDNAME is deprecated, how do I differentiate between the CALLERID on the incoming channel and the callerid set on the outgoing channel? The deprecation advice seems to suggest that I change my set statement to:

exten => s,n,Set(CALLERID(name)=CALLERID(name))

You'll have to more clearly define what you want to accomplish; normally, the Dial() application sets the CLID/CNAM info on the outgoing channel based on what is present on the channel placing the call.
