<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Came upon a problem
today that I thought I'd see if it's by design, if I'm missing an option
somewhere, or if my fix is the way to fix it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>We setup a remote
location with a server, same as we've done with others, but for some reason when
they would transfer an outside call anywhere it would pause for a few seconds
and hang up the line.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well, after spending
most of the day on it, it turns out it's because they don't have callerID on the
PSTN lines coming in through zaptel. My first thought was, set
"usecallerid=no" and all would be well, but this didn't do any good. After
playing a bit longer I just set the following:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial
size=2> exten =>
900,2,set(CALLERID(num)="606-555-1212")<BR>
exten => 900,3,set(CALLERID(name)="Outside
Call")<BR> exten =>
900,4,Dial(${DIALEXTENSIONS},${RINGTIMER},${DIAL_OPTIONS})<BR></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now all works
well.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=510493419-24042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>So is there another
option somewhere to keep asterisk from killing a transfer without
callerid? This happened on both 1.4.17 & 1.4.18.1.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
