[Asterisk-Users] VoIP hackers gut Caller ID

[Timothy R. McKee]

Insofar as I know it wasn't a feature in our DMS500 software load, if it was
the translations/provisioning folks didn't seem to be aware of if.

this is true, but Bellsouth (our local RBOC) only allows numbers in our DID
range to pass.  I can set the outbound caller id to anything, but if its not
in our DID range, then the lead number of the DID range is sent out.  Are
other telco's not doing this?
