Same thing here: they're probably going to pour Millions of Euros into
the Cisco dump during the next year. Unless I manage convince them to use
*, of course ;-)

But now I'm getting confused: you're _not_ using CCM??

So you _do_ have CCM, and Cisco's Skinny phones, and this setup does
actually work for you:

Cisco 7960 <--(Skinny)--> CCM
     ^                     ^
     |                     |
    RTP                   H.323 call setup
     |                     |
     +--- * chan_h323 -----+
             |
             *<---> app_voicemail2


That RTP connection on the left-hand side was misdirected to CCM for me,
until I switched to chan_oh323...
