[Asterisk-Users] Simulated dialtone like in other PBX

[Anton Krall]

I think it would be your last suggestion.. When I pickup the phone I hear a
tone, the sip phone box tone... Then I hit 9, no tones :) and enter the
whole phone number and it starts to ring on the other side.. So no outside
dialtone get heard ever.. I was wondering if it could be possible to make it
so that after hitting 9.. The tone would change to something else letting
the user know that they are dialing on an outside line.

I'm not sure I understand your question. 

Do you want to be able to hit 9 and get a an outside line with dialtone? 
Just add an extension to do that. For isdn you need to enable overlap
dialing.

Or do you want Asterisk to provide a dialtone after the user have hit 9 as
the first digit of a number? User the ignorepat option in the dialplan.

Or do you want Asterisk to provide a _different_ dialtone after the user
have hit 9 as the first digit of a number? This may be possible, but I think
some hack may be needed.
