[asterisk-users] Realtime and hints

[Aaron Daniel]

I seem to remember someone posting somewhere (was it the list or some
site I was browsing...) where someone had created a hint lookup table
and just put a db lookup in the dialplan for the hint priority.  Then
you just need one line to cover all your hints and the db will handle
everything else.  You just have to figure out the best realtime <->
static combination that works for you, just like ALL of us have had to.
Trial and error does wonders.
