Adam, Tor sent this one a little while ago that looks really promising for solving the problem.

Just need to SetGroup here too, in case your operator is making an outbound call). [no-callwaiting] include => default include => no-callwaiting-out [default] exten => 18,1,SetGroup(${EXTEN}) exten => 18,2,CheckGroup(1) exten => 18,103,Goto(1802,1) exten => 18,3,Dial(SIP/18,20) exten => 18,4,Voicemail(u18) exten => 18,5,Hangup Then I would do the same for 1802 and 1803 and in sip.conf put 18, 1802 and 1803 in context no-callwaiting. -Tor. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
