As someone must have already said, it's not a good idea to share lines with asterisk. This said, when we first began to use asterisk, I needed a way to have it NOT pickup when we temporarily had phones in parellel on the same 2 lines. When a line was flagged in the database as "/pickup1=0" the dialpan did a goto(do-nothing,s,1) [do-nothing] exten => s,1,AbsoluteTimeout(0) exten => s,2,NoOp("doing nothing: call came if with flag set to noanswer") exten => s,3,Wait(70) exten => t,1,Hangup The above code made asterisk *never* pickup, so it must be possible, though not good practice, to do what you want, unless things have changed in more recent versions. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
