[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and IAX softphone (firefly) problem/question

[Chris Hertz]

Quick question from a newbie, 

I have asterisk configured to dial IAX extensions (which works).  When
dialing from one IAX extension (using Firefly) to another IAX extension
(also using Firefly), the Firefly client rings on the receiving end and
gives the option of accepting or denying the call.  However, when I dial in
to Asterix using a VoicePulse number and dial the same extension Firefly
immediately picks up the call without warning the receiver.  Then oddly
enough while the call is already connected, still gives the option of
accepting or rejecting the call.  Then after 20 seconds (as specified in
extensions.conf), if the receiver hasn't accepted the call on Firefly
Asterix pulls the call back and dumps it into voicemail.  I have played with
the settings, but can't seem to figure out why Firefly is automatically
picking up the call.  Below I have included relevant (or at least what I
thought was relevant) code from extensions, iax and debug.  Any help would
be greatly appreciated.  Thanks, Chris
