[asterisk-users] Auto retry on Busy

[Rushowr]

The reason he might want it is because it's a feature offered by many POTS
and Mobile Telcos. I know that's why I've played with it, the ITSPs and SIP
Termination providers I consult for want to have as many if not more
features to offer than the POTS and Mobile guys.

Cheers,

Why don't you just test for the dial status after the dial command
completes? I don't really see why you want something to keep dialing until
it gets through, but this would work.

[something]
1,1,Dial(zap/,sip/, etc/whatever, 10)
1,n,gotoif[${DIALSTATUS}="BUSY"]?(LINEBUSY):(OTHER)
1,n(LINEBUSY), Wait(30)
1,n,goto(something,1,1)
1,n(OTHER), do something else

Sure it is pretty rough, but the basics are there. Also you might want to
