[Asterisk-Users] a bit frightened, guys

[David Gomillion]

Can you post the trick, as far as the zapping a channel and what not?
That's something I've been looking for...

I was worried about this until I realized that commercial systems were
_no_ 
different in this regard.  My current Meridian system is a PC in a fancy

box with a UPS.  The Toshiba and Panasonic and Siemens systems I've seen

are no different.  You're still "dialing by wire" in any PBX or KSU.
I've 
tested the 911 capability of * and, using an extension trick given from
the 
#asterisk IRC channel, dialling 911 just plays "You will dial 911 in 5 
seconds.  If this was done in error, hang up now" before actually
zapping a 
trunk line (if all are busy) and dialling out.  Hell my Meridian system 
doesn't even do that now!

Regards.
Andrew
