Robert, OK :) I'll go there yet again tomorrow. Do you know of a complete set of files and instructions that will work with a most basic no-frills system - a basis that I can easily understand and build on? I just pray for the Nutshell Asterisk Handbook!

You didn't mention that in your description (or I missed it) <john> Used in Zac's system - I've got the perl code and installed - seems to work without complaint. nice :) I have used * with 2 GS phones with no problem. My suggestion is to go back to the simple extensions.conf file and try it again. Take out all of the fancy stuff until you get the basic phone working. If it still doesn't work then post all relevant parts of your extensions.conf and any changes you made in sip.conf along with the trace. My GS SIP.conf for one of the phones is: [2001] type=friend username=2001 secret=test2 host=dynamic context=local-extensions <--this will probably be different in your setup Extension.conf for ringing that phone is: exten => 2001,1,Dial(SIP/2001,20,Ttr) exten => 2001,2,Voicemail(u2001) exten => 2001,102,Voicemail(b2001) exten => 2001,103,Hangup They probably aren't perfect but they do work.
