For Ring Order....

If you are defining your agents in queues.conf, the linear strategy is 
all you need. Just define the agents in the order you wish to ring.

If you are using Dynamic agents, then set the strategy to linear and 
then assign each member(agent) a different penalty at login.

For instance:
agent1 penalty 10
agent2 penalty 20
agent3 penalty 30

NOTE: You can assign penalty of 1,2,3 as well.  I just like to leave 
room to insert someone in between.

For Joining queue when agents are busy...

You should think about your answers to the joinempty and the 
leavewhenempty options in queues.conf


A really good reference for this information is the sample config file 
in the source tree.  Look for configs/queues.conf.sample   There is a 
lot of good information there.
