Umm.. Yeah I have.  Otherwise I wouldn't be a pain in the ass right now.
I'd just be clueless. :)

I can see myself login to the manager port just fine (even after I
changed my password from my post slippage ;)

(your own phone usually)

I don't want it to ring a REGISTERED device (SIP/IAX/ZAP) that is on the
system.  I want it to make a outbound call externally through my VSP and
when it's answered, then make another outbound call on another channel.

Not essential

Again, Ideas?

Thanks,
