Sorry about my earlier e-mail. (:blush:), should have included the history.

Can this be done from within Gastman?

Warm Regards

I was incorporating this functionality into the Flash Operator Panel.
In the panel I do it by using the Local channel. Suppose that you want to
call the number 555-5555, and your context for dialing out is 'dialout'. You
also have another context 'conferences' with extension number 1000 that
fires up a meetme.

The originate command for astman should look like:

Action: Originate
Channel: Local/5555555 at dialout
Exten: 1000
Context: conferences
Priority: 1

It will dial the number 5555555 as if it were dialed from the dialout
context and connect the call to Extension 1000 in 'conferences'
context.

This feature is already implemented and working in the next to be released
version of the flash panel (but now it will only dial numbers predefined in
the panel itself). You can get it from http://www.asternic.org
