hhmm, I wonder how long it takes here for that to happen. You cant turn a cell number into a landline nor viceversa. Heck, most providers dont even like it when you install a gsm gateway to call your coworkers for free with the gateway. So here it's pretty simple to know wether a call is to landline or cell. -- Michiel van Baak [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://michiel.vanbaak.eu GnuPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x71C946BD "Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users?" _______________________________________________ --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
