Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to generate "ringing tone" to a calling party.

[Chad Scott]

I thought Asterisk would indicate ringing on the PRI if it hadn't 
answered it yet.  If you answer the PRI and then Dial() don't you get 
silence?

Since he says he's played a welcome message, I'd think the line has 
been answered and therefore he has to indicate ringing to the dialing 
party with ",r".

I might be wrong, though.

to an extension.

The asterisk answers correctly, plays welcome message and ring an
extension, but the caller does not here the rings.
Did you tell Asterisk to indicate ringing?
Asterisk will ALWAYS indicate ringing if it can.
The "r" option to Dial, Playtones, and Ringing are all 
hacks/workarounds for when Asterisk cannot indicate ringing to the 
calling party.  You should diagnose and fix the real problem, rather 
than try hiding the issue.
