[asterisk-users] Can I tell if a call picked up on PSTN extension... for example?

Don't know enough to properly term the problem I'm seeing... sorry if subject appears vague. And I have other questions too, but "Newbie Help Wanted" isn't exactly more specific... ;-)

My setup, intended for testing and all, "*" version 1.6.0.6, dahdi with an X100p clone. Regular phone line provides PSTN access with one port (and my DSL).

Calls come in and are passed to 'linphone' on a laptop inside my local network. Everything works great with IAX2 and SIP peers, in that, calls end and linphone reports 'call terminated', or whatever. All *so* very cool! '-)

But, when someone calls on the land line, there are issues. First, I admit to having virtually no clue what I'm doing... but, here goes:

When the caller hangs up, linphone doesn't "know". This is an annoyance, more than anything, perhaps, as I'm not sure yet if it shows busy on the other end.

And, to the "Subject:", when a call comes in, if someone should pick up on a phone attached on the PSTN line elsewhere, the dialplan continues, announces prompts and records a voice mail...

Should it, or could it even, detect if the line was picked up elsewhere? There's only one port on the card.

I have a feeling there are glaring errors in my setup, so hope I'm not asking too much indulgence from the list to have a look... IOW, I'm keen to test in the latest branch moving forward, so thinking maybe asking a little help on this glorified home answering machine setup isn't *too* far out of line. '-)

. . .

Here are my configs, hopefully well sanitized...

Having posted all that, it'd be nice if someone points out the "big whoops-es" before they're exploited or something.

SIP and IAX2 seem to "just work". ;-) Though, looking again, I have to wonder about 'bandwidth=low', like where did that come from... might explain the cheesy sound on that line.

Anyway, I'd like to have a good first commit of my configs to SVN before I start playing around and breaking things... and much obliged to anyone who helps.
