Cheers

i realised this last night and now have SER set up

i can call between phones on SER, and to extensions handled on asterisk
(for example voicemail). However... if i dial an extension which used to
be assigned to a SIP phone, it tells me the user is on the phone... is
there any way to get this sorted so i may call UA -> SER -> asterisk ->
SER -> UA  so i can dial UAs on SER with their asterisk extension
number?

Cheers

Dan
