Richard, For future ref: I used the straight forward dial-through example, pretty much as is on the link you included (thank you!), but although the number worked fine the name did not. I had to use exten => 124,n,Set(CONNECTEDLINE(all,i)="Name <555-555-5555>") instead of a separate name and number priority. ...so the wiki might be wrong (or there might be a bug in my 1.8.x version). But it works now, thanks to you for pointing me in the right direction, Mike -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
