OMG I remember disabling that before when testing, must've slipped my

Asterisk 1.0.11.x  on a CentOS 4 box -> Asterisk 11.4.x on CentOS6 was
the reason...just old archaic unsupported system that needed to be
upgraded to a supported LTS version and OS + GUI (FreePBX in my case).
 And I thought the hardest part would be the complete rebuild of the
dialplan!  :/

Thanks, this happens to be an Adtran MX2800 -- that no one knows to
whom or where it's connected on the far end.  I've gotten as far as I
can with the Telco who actually owns the equipment DS1...unfortunately
I'm at a loss as to wtf owns the other end and can thus assist in
testing (as is the co. who owns the T1), which doesn't make a lot of
sense.  But alas, here I am -___-

Thanks all for your input.
