[Asterisk-Users] Grandstream transfer into outer space

[Matthew B Marlowe]

Ok I changed some stuff around and got it to work.

Now the strange part... The caller if they press # will ask ME who id
like to transfer to? :)

So if they accidently hit #, they get put on hold

Any ideas? :)

Hmm. Well, here's what I did. I modifited macro-stdexten so that the
dial command looks like this:

exten => s,1,Dial(${ARG2},20,tr)        ; Ring the interface, 20 seconds
maximum

When the receiver of the call presses # and enters an invalid extension,
it seems to be announcing it was invalid to the person who pressed #,
and then *resuming the call* -- you haven't lost anybody.
