Well they generally like limitations because people sometimes show questionable judgement. A forwards to B, B forwards to A. Call comes in on either and you rapidly exhaust capacity. Sometimes its just lack of knowledge that leads people to do this sometimes they just dont think beforehand. For reasons like these they like to put caps on it, but you can generally get the caps high enough that if you are forwarding from an analog line it shouldnt matter (ie if you need 1000 forwards you need to reevaluate how you are doing this). -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
