I'm using the standard Asterisk transferring. I know there is a method to do so for parked calls:
We'll still need to see more of your dialplan. By your description, it looks like the call is failing because the Dial() times out. blindxfer and atxfer won't automatically return a caller to the receptionist. You have to have something in the dialplan to do that. When we know what it is that is redirecting your failed transfers back to the receptionist (probably the 't' extension), we can just insert a "Set(CALLERID=xxxx)" or "Set(_ALERT_INFO=xxxx)". You may also have transfers fail because they get sent to an invalid extension. The calls go to the 'i' extension. You can modify it accordingly, too. - Noah _______________________________________________ --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
