[Asterisk-Users] chan_capi-cm 0.6.4 random outgoing MSN problem

[Faris Raouf]

Thanks for that Peter!

I think your message solved my problem: I set the master number to be in 
group 1 (group=1) in capi.conf and called Dial with CAPI/g1 and it 
worked perfectly.

However, with group=1 in capi.conf for the master number, at the moment 
no matter what I do I'm getting the master number presented as the CLI. 
This is fine by me because it is exactly what I want, but it is all very 
confusing :-)

Faris.
