Does this require any special changes or additions to features.conf,
or does Asterisk by default know to flash the ZAP channel when *0 is
pushed?

Here's what I learned (thanks Larry):
For example, assume you're paying for three way calling from your
telco, and you want to place a three way call. First establish a call
with person A. Press the Flash (or Link) button. When you get the
dialtone from Asterisk, press *0 and Asterisk sends the flashhook to
the CO. Now you hear another dialtone, this time from the CO. Now
dial the number for person B. Press Flash (or link again), then press
*0 to flash the CO again. Now you have established a three way call
through the telco. This only works with Zap channels of course.
Repeat the above on the second line to get the 5 way activated...

I'd not bother with using the flash based 3 way calling. Instead I'd
setup an account with an ITSP and make the outbound calls via IP,
preferabbly via IAX2. That way to can reach out to as many people as
your bandwidth allows. Simply. Conveniently.
Add one IP based DID and you can let others call in to your
conference
via IP.
I've been thinking about getting some IP DIDs for other reasons
anyway, so thanks for the suggestion. There's a bandwidth issue
however and this client is simply more comfortable keeping things on
copper, especially con-calls. As I mentioned the client's paying for
3-way calling from Bell, so is there no way to take advantage of this
and establish a three way call on a single FXO line through Asterisk?
I've opened another thread on this issue as it's more fundamental
than
my original 5 way calling problem.
Thanks,
Hugh
