RE: [Asterisk-Users] Outbound Transfer and the # key
works great, thanks for posting it. This illustrates my point perfectly that to have this functionality you have to modify the patch every time you want to upgrade your CVS. Is there any way we can pursuade Mark to at least make it a compile-time option if not a parking.conf option?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Outbound Transfer and the # key
In your extensions.conf, set Global Variable
TRANSFER_ENABLE=T
then one of your extensions looks like:
[from-internal]
exten => s,1,SetVar(TRANSFER_ENABLE=T)
exten => s,2,NoOp
exten => *,1,GotoIf($[${TRANSFER_ENABLE} = 0]?2:8)
exten => *,2,SetVar(TRANSFER_ENABLE=T)
exten => *,3,Wait(0)
exten => *,4,Playback(pbx-transfer)
exten => *,5,Playback(is-set-to)
exten => *,6,Playback(pound)
exten => *,7,Goto(s,1)
exten => *,8,SetVar(TRANSFER_ENABLE=)
exten => *,9,Wait(0)
exten => *,10,Playback(pbx-transfer)
exten => *,11,Playback(is-not-set)
exten => *,12,Goto(s,2)
and then include this extension where your phones dial out...then on
your dial-outs, something like this:
exten => _NXX,1,Dial(${OUTBOUND}/${EXTEN},40,${TRANSFER_ENABLE}r)
exten => _NXX,2,Congestion
exten => _NXX,102,Congestion
Well, you get the idea. You press the * button before a call, wait for
the message, then you can dial out without the # button being active.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Outbound Transfer and the # key
I can't add a comment to the bug tracker without logging in, and I forget my login details anyway, I would suggest changing the patch to the opposite behaviour. ie, single # is transfer, but double # means send a # to the remote. This would mean that in the majority of cases, things don't change for the end user, which might make it more likely for the patch to be accepted?? Also, I think you are going to transfer a call more frequantly than you will need to send # ...

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Outbound Transfer and the # key
There is a better way to deal with this, it's the doublehash patch. This patch makes it so you have to press the hash key twice to transfer a call instead of once as is default in Asterisk. Sad thing is that every time the parking code changes the patch has to change(sometimes twice a week) and I don't have a patch for the most recent CVS. I've asked numerous times for some wonderful Asterisk-code-God(please Mark ;)) to make it a configurable variable in the parking.conf file but noone seems to think it's worthy of doing. It's actually a rather simple code change from what I can guess reading the patch code. I've been told that the core developers(Mark) don't want to mess with doublehash, but maybe if enough people say they want it we can get them to make this harmless addition to the parking code. Here's a bug where it's been talked about: http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=885 MATT--- -Original Message- From: John Congdon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 09, 2004 4:24 PM To: Asterisk Mailling List Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Outbound Transfer and the # key Has there been any resolution to this? Does anyone have a good way to allow someone to choose whether they want to be able to transfer a call vs send the # to the other end. Is there a simple way to change the Transfer key for # to *?
