Pete, I have never done it but it would seem that running a SIP client on your SIP server may be problematic. Also, 58.251.75.228 is certainly not on your 192.168.x.x subnet. Is your machine dual homed? Thanks, Steve Totaro On Thu, Mar 20, 2008 at 9:34 PM, Carlos Rojas [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hmmm - the issue is more that the Polycom is generating a 'busy' when it is dialled on DND. This is not really an Asterisk issue. You could have a look at the dial setup you are using (such as macro-stdexten) and set it to play the unavailable message for for busy. PaulH On Mon, 2008-03-17 at
