I'll have to look.

It is a bit of a mess.  Bits and pieces and the system is also used for 
testing a multi-tenant setup.  The Asterisk configuration started on BSD 
using * 1.2 but because of support (or lack thereof) and some 
needed/desired features was moved to CentOS 5, and * 1.4.

I based my system on the same setup but have taken time to strip the 
cruft out and clean up the poorly formatted files that also lacked any 
comments/documentation.  Talk about a learning experience!

Logs I can get just didn't have them handy when I first tried to send 
the message (a whole other story of too many email accounts and mailing 
lists.).  Plus I'd like to watch as it was happening.

Yup.  That's why I want to watch it happening.

Just hoping (wishing?) for serendipity!

Looks like it will be the hard way. :-(


Thanks,
