Check the website this weekend.  We've just added ringback and ringtone.

>I find that for each user i want registered i have to add his name and his ip address.I have been using "host = dynamic".Isnt there any way that i can define a dialmap such as _7XXX and all users can then be registered with the server and get allocated the their individual numbers by the server.(till now i define the numbers with callerid field). i need to do this so that i can add 15+ users without having to add each individually.

I don't _think_ you can use wildcards in iax.conf like that.  I think you'll
have to make all fifteen entries.

>and in extensions.conf, i would just have to use something like the following:

You want to use ${EXTEN} in the dial string.  I use

exten => _2XX,1,Playback(loligo/pls-wait-connect-call)    
exten => _2XX,2,Dial(IAX2/${IAXINFO}/${EXTEN})
