Thanks the System application works.
But I'm stuck before executing the script. I know this thread is suppose to be on the user list, but bare with me please.
</pre>
I'm following Kevin Flemming's advice:<br>
<pre>><i>Let's see... set a channel variable in the dialplan before going into MeetMe, then in the context where

My dialplan looks as follows, the user dials in and are prompt for
meetme room and pin number:<br>
<br>
exten => s,1,MeetMe(${ROOM},rsxA,${PIN})<br>
<br>
When a meetme user hangs up/been kicked then we count the number of
participants in the conference and based on that we execute the
extension which executes the System(lame-script) application.<br>
<br>
exten => h,1,MeetMeCount(${ROOM}|countvar)<br>
exten => h,2,GotoIf($[${ROOM} != "" & ${countvar} = 0]?5010:5011)<br>
<br>
The problem is that the ${ROOM} varaible is empty by the time we get to
h,1.<br>
I have read somewhere that some channel varaibles are destroyed and you
have to watch out for this when using the h extension.<br>
<br>
What know? I'm I going the right way?<br>
<br>
Thanks for all the help.<br>
