Back on track... OK. I understand that "press the hold button" won't do what I want. The next best thing is ... instead of using the built-in call parking feature, where the call gets parked at a random extension, I need to be able to park calls from extension X at a specific other extension Y. Parking at a random extension, then picking it up, is fine if there's ever only one call on hold, but I expect that there will be times where I need to have more than one call on hold. We have four DID lines, all plugged into our Asterisk server, and we do a lot of telephone support. :) Thanks, Steve -- Steve Sobol, Professional Geek ** Java/VB/VC/PHP/Perl ** Linux/*BSD/Windows Victorville, California PGP:0xE3AE35ED It's all fun and games until someone starts a bonfire in the living room. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
