[Asterisk-Users] Sip pickup

[Rich Adamson]

>   In my office I%u2019m using mixed architecture of Zap and Sip phones, everything works 
fine but I have got some problems with picking up Sip channels. To be certain I can%u2019t do 
it at all, after I%u2019m dialing *8 the console says "nothing to pick up" (despite I 
configure appropriate callgroup and pickupgroup).

Unless I'm misunderstanding your request, it works just fine for me
on any sip extension using cvs-head from a couple of days ago.

Example: 
[3111]                                                              
type=friend
username=3111
secret=mysecret
host=dynamic
context=from-sip
dtmfmode=rfc2833
callgroup=2
pickupgroup=2
mailbox=3111

When the above sip phone is ringing, on another sip phone (C7960) 
I press *8# and the above phone stops ringing, and I'm talking to
the person that called 3111.
