RE: [Serusers] Forwarding to another number if busy

Right, I will write a module, something like: alias() Except, perhaps... forward() Is that the right approach? The a forward table in the database that contains (at least) : User_id forward_id Where user_id is a number, and if that number is busy (or unavailable) then forward the request to forward_id. Now that I think about it, this is exactly like the alias() call, isn't it? ---greg > -----Original Message----- > From: serusers-admin(a)lists.iptel.org > [mailto:serusers-admin@lists.iptel.org] On Behalf Of Jiri Kuthan > Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2003 1:02 PM > To: Greg Fausak; serusers(a)lists.iptel.org > Cc: sip(a)august.net > Subject: RE: [Serusers] Forwarding to another number if busy > > > 'setuser("1002");' works, but it is a burden of static > configuration -- you > don't want to do that for every user.
