You haven't described a single scenario that would require the same 
authentication information from two UAs.  Ringing multiple extensions would 
solve all of them and there's no call forwarding involved.  Try again.

Example: This is how my personal DID gets to me:

exten => 2914574,1,Dial(${ANDREWHOME}&${BENSHAW}/${EXTEN},16,rT)
exten => 2914574,n,Dial(${ANDREWHOME}&${ANDREWCELL},16,rT)
exten => 2914574,n,VoiceMail(4574 at default,sua)
exten => 2914574,n,Macro(handle-hangup)

It rings my house and a private DID at my office simultaneously, then 
continues ringing my house and also dials out a Zap channel to my cell, 
finally dropping off to unavailable voicemail.

My home Asterisk server gets this call and dials 
(Zap/1&Zap/2&Zap/3&IAX2/andrew-bt&SIP/xten) -- there are no delays and I can 
pick up the call from any of those extensions.
