[asterisk-users] 'System' application in asterisk

[Tino]

Hi Steve, thanks for your interest in this matter.
I will explain my requirement here.

In my asterisk server before an agent doing manual dial is allowed a call,
asterisk will make an http request (to my crm, do not worry about this part
)  and get back an OK or something else. … if it receives OK, it allows the
call, otherwise we just play an "unauthorized call"  recording to the agent.
We make the http request using a  "wget | perl " command and we want to
capture the output of the wget | perl command.
