[Asterisk-Users] ChanSpy via external application

[Peter Fern]

Just implemented a similar feature here - apparently the chanprefix 
won't accept a full channel identifier, so I ended up dropping the last 
character (this works for me since all the sip delivery we want to 
monitor is to individual handsets - I won't be monitoring any channels 
that are delivered in bulk).

I should really file this as a bug - I would think more useful behaviour 
in most cases would be to take a channel identifier rather than a prefix.
