[Asterisk-Users] Re: PTSN POTS Differences RESOLVED...no really this time...

Tony, good call. The place I had entered the "w" would get overwritten by a
default include from somewhere.

I found the ${ARG2} in the extensions.conf:

; dialout using a trunk, using pattern matching (don't strip any prefix)
; arg1 = trunk number, arg2 = number
[macro-dialout-trunk]
exten => s,1,GotoIf($[foo${ECID${CALLERIDNUM}} = foo]?4)        ;check
for CID override for exten
exten => s,2,SetCallerID(${ECID${CALLERIDNUM}})
exten => s,3,Goto(6)
exten => s,4,GotoIf($[foo${OUTCID_${ARG1}} = foo]?6)            ;check
for CID override for trunk
exten => s,5,SetCallerID(${OUTCID_${ARG1}})
exten => s,6,SetGroup(OUT_${ARG1})
exten => s,7,CheckGroup(${OUTMAXCHANS_${ARG1}})
; if we've used up the max channels, continue at 108 (n+101)
exten => s,8,SetVar(DIAL_NUMBER=w${ARG2})  ****HERE*******HERE**********
exten => s,9,SetVar(DIAL_TRUNK=${ARG1})
exten => s,10,AGI(fixlocalprefix) ; this sets DIAL_NUMBER to the proper dial
string for this trunk
exten => s,11,Dial(${OUT_${ARG1}}/${OUTPREFIX_${ARG1}}${DIAL_NUMBER})
; if dial fails (ie, all channels are busy), continue at 112 (n+101)

Works and does not appear to get overwritten.

Thanks again.

Robert
