With GSM cell phones you have a few options. My cell-phone is set up to forward unavailable (busy, no answer, etc) calls to a special DID on my * box. When calls came in through that DID, I know they're forwarded from the cell and they go into voice-mail after a few rings.
I'm planning on scripting this a little better so that calls which ring our home extensions as well as my cell will be ignored when they come in on my cell-DID within 3 seconds of ringing on the initial DID. > -----Original Message----- > From: Ryan Courtnage [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, February 04, 2005 12:55 PM > To: Pedro; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Call forwarding > > > On Fri, 2005-04-02 at 13:11 -0500, Pedro wrote: > > Cool idea. > > > > One question - let's say someone specifies their home phone > number and > > their cell number.
