exactly. write a shell script, assign it to a dtmf sequence, then call that sequence from the startup macro line in rpt.conf for the node. -- Bryan Sent from my iPhone 5...No electrons were harmed in the sending of this message.

Doug,

The way I do it is to describe the CMD as a xxxx=command and call it from the SU macro string.

I have a question on the startup_macro and calling a system script. The following does not seem to work. How do you call a system command from startup_macro? Perhaps the cmd, is left off? This does not seem clear in the documentation. I never really had a need to use this until lately.

startup_macro=cmd,/etc/asterisk/some_script
