[Asterisk-Users] context question

[trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com]

That doesnt really help.  As stated in the email you replied to what is
to prevent someone doing say 

[1]
exten => 1,1,goto(2,1,1)

or customer A *and* customer B trying to define the same context name,
to use your example lets say they both want to create context '1'.  

I want to be able to create 1 system that has multiple users who are
able to create their own dialplans without naming collisions with other
customers or gotos going to other customers, etc. 

This is more for a virtual hosting type setup so I can have one large
machine instead of many smaller ones, thus allowing for better ROI.

While many have suggested that I learn the basics of contexts (as you
did) no one has been able to ansewr the actual question asked making me
think there is no current answer, and an AGI is the way to go.  That way
I can have more control over what data is observed and all that.  I just
didnt want to write an AGI if there was an existing solution, especially
if it was part of asterisk itself and not an external program.
