Or you can try the one-button parking patches at: http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=7090 http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=6340 You could couple this with the metermaid patch so your receptionist can monitor those parked calls. If you have a phone that has lots of line buttons (Polycom 601 w/sidecar, Cisco 7960/7970 w/sidecar, Snom 360 w/sidecar, etc), you can monitor lots of parking spaces. As far as the paging, are you using the asterisk Page() application? Coupled with a phone that can do auto-answering, you should be able to replicate any behavior that the nortel could do. - Noah On 10/3/06, Mojo with Horan & Company, LLC <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
