In a million ways, look at: - built-in pickup with *8 (only for ringing calls, not established calls) - meetme (put every call into a conference, and then join 3rd party if desired) - SLA as in Asterisk 1.4.4 (shared line appearance) - related dialplan example: Asterisk voicemail live (search the wiki) - manager API (aka "AMI"): redirect command Then there are additional methods that don't come with Asterisk right away, search for: - app_bridge (Asterisk bug tracker, and possibly also from backports) - app_changrab (available from FreePBX) - app_steal (bristuff, available from junghanns.net) Cheers, Philipp _______________________________________________ --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
