Thanks Jeff - Hadn't forgotten about you :P
Things are working really well... I purchased a t1 card from GTS
Telephone in NJ - reconditioned for $300.00. Inserted it into my second
cabinet (first one has one already); then made a crossover cable to the
second t100p. After that just a few config changes and it started
working! I added this to dial from the ip phone to the nec extnsions:

; nec bridge
exten => _1XX,1,Dial(zap/g4/${EXTEN}) 
exten => _2XX,1,Dial(zap/g4/${EXTEN}) 

g4 is the 2nd t100p - this works perfectly.
the opposite doesn't (unless I teach everyone to dial REAL fast!)

Dialing from the ip phone to the nec works with these changes:

; dial a long distance outbound number - added 9 for nec link
exten => _91NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(${TRUNKX}/9 ${EXTEN:1},,Tt)
exten => _91NXXNXXXXXX,2,Congestion

However I'm getting a drop in the volume after the first ring (guess
asterisk does the first one). I've tried using the rxgain to no avail.
My nec friend will be in tomorrow -- he says he can bump the db's up -
but it bothers me there is a problem -- it wasn't there when I had
asterisk as the primary - nec as secondary.
If I can get the volume thing fixed I will stick with it that way until
I can map out all the things the nec is currently doing when a call
comes in .... lots of routing IVR and such. If it just had to route
incoming calls to a couple receptionists... I would be ready already!
I'll keep you up to date!
