Yes, that´s exactly what I want to do.

I will look in this sample. Thanks a lot for this, Will.

My main problem is, that I don´t know how to specify (and where) the
telephone number for a certain user in the server process.
Can I ask the PBX TSP for that? Is it possible to search for a line,
that belongs to a certain local telephone number? I think the logic
connection between the telephone of a user and the belonging telephone
number is available through the TSP. I think this is really a basic
problem.
Thanks and Greetings
