Hi Craig I've been developing a Recording Server app (which I will be giving back to the community) and one of the requirements is for the recording to be offloaded to several machines. Because of the filename is being set prior to the recording, I need to pass this variable to the slave server. I'm using 1.2.13 (heavily patched) and I came across your email. Any chance of getting your port? Thanks for your help...

Hi Richard, there was a thread regarding this a while ago on the dev list which resulted in a patch being made to allow variable passing via IAX2 channels. See http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=7619 for the patch which I think is in SVN or anyhow, is not in 1.2 I have recently backported this patch to 1.2 and have a patch which is tested against 1.2.12, 1.2.12.1 and 1.2.15, but should work against at least 1.2.13 and 1.2.14. The patch introduces a new dialplan function called IAXVAR, Email me if interested.
