We're using the latest stable ubuntu version so upgrading is not really an option.
There are currently over 1500 sip extension attached to the production server and close to 200 numbers coming in to their own dial plans. Any version upgrade would have to be done by itself outside of any other development to make sure that nothing breaks. > I do realize you want ExtenSpy because that's the way you originally > planned it.

I was more hoping that the issue I was having with ExtenSpy was familiar to someone as I can't see that I'm doing anything wrong. I really want to be able to tell that customer to dial 5 or any other arbitrary number and then the extension number they wish to listen in on as that would be a very user friendly system.
