[Asterisk-Users] Can Asterisk automatically initiate a call?

[Scott Stingel]

Mark-

Yes, you can create a shell script that dumps a text file into
/var/spool/asterisk/outgoing.

Use the prototype found in /usr/src/asterisk/sample.call

Name the file "N.call" or something similar, where N is the channel number.
Create an outgoing context in your extensions.conf file to do what you want.

Good luck!
