I have the following in my sip.conf entries:
callerid="Anonymous" <8885551212>
This still passes the number for 911, but flags the call as private. I believe this will meet your requirements.

OK. I was under the impression that the PSAP got their information based on ALI/ANI and not from CLID. Are you telling me that they're looking at CLID?
Also, at least in the testing I've done, the text portion of the CLID string is ignored by the telco. They only look at the number and generate the text based on what is in their database. IE; If I tell my asterisk server to set my callerID to "test" <my home number> and call someplace, What I get on the CLID display of the phone I dial is "John Fraizer" and my home number.
Since Powell has stated that we must provide E911 services, I am wondering what precisely is going to have to be done to do so with Asterisk. Routing the call to the PSAP when someone dials 911 is the easy part. Sending all of the information they want/need (much more than just CLID and something that is regulated) is an alltogether different story.
