David,
You need to determine how your telephone company sends in the numbers. This is pretty easy.
1. Go into the asterisk CLI. SSH into your asterisk box with root privileges. Then enter the command "asterisk -vr" from the command line. You should then be in the Asterisk CLI.
2. Dial the number you want to use via your cell phone or another phone that can get to the public exchange.
3. Watch the CLI you should see the number you dialed show up. Most of the time it is a 10 digit number 2051231234
4. Go to the GUI and go to the Incoming Calling Rules tab.
5. Create a new rule.
The Pattern will be _2051231234 (the number you want to handle coming in)
The time will be "none"
The destination will be either an extension you created, a ring group you created, or an autoattendant you created.
6. Save and "Apply Changes" at the top of the GUI.
That should do it,

Subject: [asterisk-gui] DID?

I have been struggling at trying to allow dial in by Direct In-dial, but
haven't been able to figure out how.
I tell it dial in by DID then I can't figure out the pattern that it
asks for...
Any Help?
David
