[Asterisk-Users] Adtran 750 Configuration

Thanks!

My first 4 POTS lines inbound have caller ID.  I want to make sure it's
passed on to my sip phones.  The internal sip to sip works already for
caller ID, so I'm guessing that enabling caller ID in zapata.conf should
work.

We'll find out.  Thanks again for your help!

John
