What I want to do is have the asterisk server sat in my house and used by my family to access the BT landline and to recieve calls made to that landline. If it is not possible to do the auto attendant thing then so be it, I will just have all phones in my house ring when a call is made on the BT line. That should be easy, right ?
.. yes, this is what I have for my SOHO setup.
In addition to running the server just for my house, I want to have other memebers of my extended family link up to the server via their broadband connections so we can make free calls to each other over the internet connections.
... looks like a case for SIP or IAX clients.
What I don't want is for other members of my family (who are not resident in my house) to be able to make calls on my BT landline, but I do want them to be able to make unlimited calls to other extentions on the asterisk server.
... they need to be in a context that has no access to Dial commands that target the X100P.
Since I already pay monthly for broadband, I am not very keen to start paying more for an IDSN line which will only be used for this project. I don't use / need caller ID on external calls, so thats not an issue. Does that all make sence ?
.... yes - first choose the type of client your extended family will use. Then create an appropriate iax.conf or sip.conf and include entries for all authorised users. Create contexts for 'local' and 'extended-family" users in extensions.conf. Assign users to either context as appropriate in sip.conf or iax.conf. Assign extensions numbers, set up Dial commands etc ... Most is explained in the asterisk manual or on the VoIP wiki.

Thanks, Paul.

It sounds like you are trying to share the PBX between multiple people..
I would suggest getting an ISDN BRI line and an AVM Fritz card (using the chan_capi driver).. This will give you two lines onto which you can get 8 MSN's (an MSN is another number coming in on the same BRI).. You can setup Asterisk to route the calls to the correct phones or group of phones based on the number that was called..
If you are in the UK there are plenty of Fritz cards around and this method will also allow you to have CallerID if you want it where the analog cards have issues with CallerID..
Later..
