First off, this question belongs on asterisk-users, not asterisk-dev.  How 
did you come to post this to asterisk-dev?  This list is getting alot of 
these lately, and I'm wondering if we need a much more aggressive approach 
to defining what content goes to what lists.

To maybe answer your question, first I direct you to www.voip-info.org, as 
it seems you are fairly new to asterisk.  You will find that site somewhat 
helpful.  You may want to check out the asterisk-doc list and project, as 
it will probably prove helpful.

The problem you are probably having here is that there are only three 
numbers you will be able to dial with the configs as you have listed them 
above.  Those numbers are 2000, 2001, and 2999.  Any other numbers will 
give you a cant find extension in context error.  This is because you only 
have those three extensions defined in the from-sip context.
