With most asterisk installs, there's no difference between an extension and a phone number. For example, from your internal context, a phone could dial one number and get an internal destination, or dial another number and get an external destination. i.e. in my office I could tell a theoretical wake-up system to call me at extension 112 -- my desk -- or at extension 7471234 -- my home. Why should it need to know the difference? It's still the same procedure: call, wait for answer, play info recording... :)

I dont know the wakeup feature. But what you want can be done with a
web interface generating ".call" files with the timestamp of the day,
hour and time when you want to hear the reminder. Just read in
voip-info about the ".call" files and if you have doubts we will be
glad to help you.

How would one go about setting up the wakeup feature of Asterisk to NOT
call an extension, but to call a phone number?

My setup works great for wakeup on local extensions, but I'd like to set
it up to call external phone numbers automatically and play a specific
sound file (to remind people of upcoming hair stylist appointments).

I suppose either there'd have to be a web interface to use for this
(entering a time for the reminder - and a phone number to call) or
change the voice prompt to ask for a phone number to use, if not the
extension called from.

I'm sure it's doable - but I am now knowledgeable enough.  I searched
and didn't find any instructions on the web for something like this.

Thanks for any help...
