http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+auto-dial+out You can schedule into the future by setting the call file's modification time accordingly. If it's to be a recurring job then cron would be good, as you said. Perhaps you should consider a Sipura SPA-2000 or similar at your forward-to location and let Asterisk handle the forwarding.
