[asterisk-users] Adding DND to dialplan

[Brian McEntire]

Ah!

Got it. Hard coding CallerID is a good idea and thank you for the example.

I decided to try the Noop(DB(...)) to see what was getting passed and
the empty CALLERID was the issue.

I decided to skip that and implement a global DND since that's what I
wanted anyway so I just set DND/ALL=1 in the DB line.

I'll post a full example here when I put on the finishing touches but
it is working now. Thanks all for the help.

One question... are there any places to get extra sound files like
"activated" or "deactivated" or "do not disturb is..."  ?? I didn't
find them in the sounds directory after a vanilla install of the
latest stable asterisk 1.4.
