Hello. I'm sorry I wasn't clear. In the original question I asked, I said that I found the same work around that was suggested on this list. Since the suggestion was there, and since I had posted my original work around in my original message, I thought there was something that I was missing with respect to the work around itself, and I was asking for clarification. The solution I have working at the moment, is exactly the one which was offered up. However, I don't like it, because it's a solution which doesn't scale. I was trying to assertain if Asterisk would do what I was envisioning, and which SER does very well, and if the fact that I couldn't think of a way was merely due to my lack of knowledge about Asterisk. It sounds like Asterisk doesn't work like this right now. Do folks think they'd find such a feature useful if I coded it up and sent it back to Digium? -thanks -Brian
