[asterisk-users] Rejecting a Call

[Ray Jackson]

The problem is I do not want to answer the call but reject it during 
call setup with the appropriate 401 or 403 type response - similar to 
the way Busy() sends back a '486 Busy Here'.  The problem is this causes 
the other end to Hunt to the next endpoint, whereas I want the other end 
to give up on the call which would require something like a 401 or 403 
after reading the documentation.  I guess Asterisk can't send specific 
response codes like SER can?

Cheers,
Ray
