Is the Siemens phone doing an independent lookup to the on line phonebook? I believe asterisk ( and AstLinux ) expect it to be delivered with the call, and don't provide a facility to do a lookup. that you would have to script. the fact that you only get the number ( twice ) would seem to indicate that the carrier isn't delivering the name with the call.
