That replaces the effort of doing it in the dial-plan with the effort required for a more complex application + the effort required to make it redundant. Asterisk 1.2 also does not recover from a failure to connect to a FastAGI server. When it fails to connect, the current call just bombs out. No recovery possible.<br><br>Doug.<br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Original Message ----<br>From: Steve Totaro <stotaro@totarotechnologies.com><br>To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion
