Re: [Asterisk-Users] asterisk tries to dial out on lines already in use.
I started a small bounty for it at: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Dialtone+and+line-in-use+detection+on+a+ZAP+channel Hopefully other people will add to it and make it grow. Jon.

Can't asterisk look for a dialtone? Even a $5 modem can detect whether or not there is a dialtone. Thanks, Jon.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] asterisk tries to dial out on lines already in use.
Asterisk should be able to do this, there are several cases when this is essential. The first is a shared/party line where asterisk cannot have guaranteed access for whatever reason. In our case, that reason happens to be because we also use our outgoing lines for faxing. The second is that without dialtone detection, if for some reason the line is down, asterisk needs to know so that it can try a different outgoing line. If the first line is down, asterisk shouldn't hang, it should wait a few seconds and try to dial out on the next line. Jon.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] asterisk tries to dial out on lines already in use.
No, not really, what information do you need? I have no idea whether it is an asterisk problem, and adit 600 problem, etc... I was hoping someone would be able to give me an idea of which config file to look into, etc... so I wouldn't have to attach 20 config files to my email. Jon.
