or have business service that pays per minute. I worked for an ISP almost a decade ago that had many residential lines with no services and call forwarding enabled (total cost less than $10/mo) to use to increase their dialup numbers. They forwarded to the main dialup number in the hunt group. Largely they were placed at customer sites (in exchange for discounted service - nondialup customers). We had 99 forwards enabled, and becuase they were residential lines local calling meant no additional cost. Not a very nice thing to do, but hey after 12 years in business that isp is still only one county large. Kinda tells you something about that ... -- 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
