[Asterisk-Users] Call forwarding

[Adrian A]

Thanks, that actually helps a lot.  
One problem I have (kind of unrelated) is with the AGI script
requiring two arguments.  You have:
exten => s,1,AGI(forward-get.agi,internal,${MACRO_EXTEN})
On my Asterisk installation that somehow passes the two arguments
internal and ${MACRO_EXTEN} as one argument to the bash script causing
the blank check for ${exten} to exit the script.  I have even tried
other suggestions such as:
exten => s,1,AGI(forward-get.agi|internal&${MACRO_EXTEN}) or
exten => s,1,AGI,forward-get.agi,internal ${MACRO_EXTEN}
I'm running a recent version of CVS HEAD.
Asterisk CVS-HEAD built by root at phone.internal.xten.net on a i686
running Linux on 2005-07-07 18:42:16
