[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Guru help needed for DISA troubles

[Jeffrey Starin]

Hello, Steve and thank you for replying.

Yes, I know the DISA is going to the correct context because when a user 
direct-dials into the box (not coming in via FWD) everything works fine 
-- the tones are understood and acted upon.  This only happens when 
calls are originating from a FWD connection.  I'm pretty stumped on this 
one.
