I was only trying to demonstrate that my special variable MYIP was indeed
in the environment of the shell. I suspect it's not in the Asterisk
process environment - why I dunno.
I'll look at that tomorrow but suspect I'll never be able to read the MYIP
variable from Asterisk.
Yes you are.
exten => 501,1,NoOp(${ENV(MYIP)})
$ sudo env MYIP=899 asterisk -gvvvc
*CLI> dial 501

Thanks for your reply Ioan.
Very interesting. ${ENV(PATH)} works to display the path
but ${ENV(MYIP)} does not!
There must be a list in Asterisk that only allows cerain environmental
variables to be shown. A very unnecessary bummer.
Right.
However, at the CLI prompt:
! echo $PATH and ! echo $MYIP
both work fine.
However This is incorrect: '!' only works in a remote asterisk terminal: a
connection from a different process (on the same system) to the running
Asterisk process.
It will run a subshell of thatremote process. So it is not necessarily
related to the environment of the Asterisk process.
Also: when running something in System(), note that you run a
subprocess, and that this subprocess may have its own separate
environment.
