You need a provider who will allow at least 2 concurrent calls through her gateway. One call is to the user; the other call is to you. The mechanism for doing this is the Originate function. You can originate through the CLI, through a manager connection, or by placing a callfile in the call spool directory. -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
