is this too old? shuld i upgrade? which version do u suggest and where
to download it from. by the way i hate trixbox, not even as a joke

i see including calls directed to call queues? but 2.7 supports that
right ?

ill test it and let u know thanks

one more question if you dont mind, after i download or install 2.7
how do i configure walke up calls ?

is it a click and o procedure or i got to edit config files ? by the
way walke up calls didnt work on my 1.4 by default or even after
editing confdig files

i hope 2.7 is differeent

cheers

Sorry, I should have been more specific. If you have a mobile or
regular landline number which you have authenticated for outgoing CLI,
then this is the place to put it.

It happens that phpguy formulated :

Wakeup Calls Good News & Bad News. The good news is that Asterisk@Home
2.7 includes the latest version of the Wakeup Call program, and the
default setup works. Just dial *62. The bad news is that the "annoy"
option which is supposed to force the user to key in a number to prove
they're awake still doesn't work.
