I had tried this back in October and found that ChanisAvail does not work for Sip
channels. I think you can look at the code and confirm this. I have not heard of it
being implemented.
The incominglimit=1 is the solution I used. If you use this feature, it will only
allow one call to the extension. Therefore, you can set your Dial command to ring all
of the extensions at the two front desks (set a global) and it will ring all of the
extensions except the ones that are busy.
Actually, I just set all of the lines on my 7960 phones to the same Sip extension.
That way if they are on a call on the first 7960 appearance, they can just press the
next button to answer the new call while the 7960 holds the one they were talking on
(while playing music on hold!).
email me offline if you want me to call you and discuss it with you more. Also, I
could send my config files for you to take a look at.

Just do this:
FRONTDESK=Sip/frontdesk1&Sip/frontdesk2&Sip/frontdesk3&Sip/frontdesk4&Sip/frontdesk5
...
exten => 775,1,Dial(${FRONTDESK})
