[Asterisk-Dev] Help with Call Waiting

[Brian J. Schrock]

Is this SIP?

If so you can limit the amount of calls a sip phone will take incoming to one. 
That way as long as threeway calling is outgoing only (would it ever not be) 
then you have what you want.

I do not remember how to set it, but do a "sip show inuse" at the asterisk 
console. I did this for a client.
