Yes indeed I suspect that * is not passing any DID information on the
call. This could be because my Dial command is wrong or I may need to use
different signalling settings. (Is there any other setting with pri_net?)
When doing pri debug I noticed a line that * was thinking that the other
side was not ISDN equipment (but there is a lot of output and I never read
debug output before)
DID was working, the PRI was passing it on to the Alcatel.
I'll have a look on the forum you mentioned.
Thanks!

Hmm... In my case, it could be just dumb luck. I found some instructions
on setting up DID on my pbx, and started that. Part way through, I wasn't
sure what the rest of the instructions were talking about and felt I was
getting in too deep. So, I decided to see what would happen if I just tried
it. It worked. Since this is only a temporary solution until we move
completely off the pbx to Asterisk, I felt like I didn't need to find out
why it worked, just be thankful that it worked.
It sounds like your system is just answering the line and not paying
attention to any DID information. I was able to find a lot of information
on the tek-tips.com forums for the Merlin Legend. You may try a search on
there and see.
Was DID working in the past, or have you just added it with the addition of
the Asterisk system?

Thanks! The PBX is a Alcatel Novo Supreme. All calls go straight into the
auto attendant no matter whoch extension I dial on the Zap group the PBX
is connected to. I tried dialling in by hand using several combinations
but I always get the auto attendant.
How do you transfer the call straight to the extension the fax is on? I
guess using a Dial command fro *?
I suspect that the PBX is missing some signalling.
Thanks!
