Glen This is fairly easy to do, and works well using the IAX protocol. There are a group of some 100-200 nodes worldwide doing something similar connecting electromechanical switches and collectors ( think amateur radio without the radio ) The way we are doing it wouldn't help you too much as we have a central reference point for line numbers, but there are nodes from NZ to the UK to the US that are interconnected on an as needed basis. Our dialplan is based on ( in the US ) the NANP with no NPA, and outside the US existing country codes. We have had some amusing examples of hackers that have managed to break in and thinking they have PSTN access, ended up with some ( to them ) surprises. Call setup times are short, 1-2 seconds generally, so I doubt you would even need a "please wait" recording. See ckts.info for more information on the network and some coding examples that might help.

Set up an IAX link between the two boxes (you could do it with SIP, but I found IAX less trouble), then set up an appropriate bit of dialplan logic on the American box, as it might be: exten => 4682,1,Dial(IAX2/usern...@eurobox/8873) Roger -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
