TOFU corrected. <> This mailing list prefers a well-trimmed and interleaved posting style. Trimming the quoted text being the most important part of that.

I think you misunderstand the purpose of this list. We are not a nameless pool of labor for you. Rather, we are individuals, some of which, if you ask nicely may have some time to donate to help you accomplish tasks with or diagnose errors in your Debian installation. On top of that, few of us are mind readers, so you will need to be very specific in telling us: what you've tried, what you know, and what results you've gotten so far. I know very little about automating the process of placing a phone call and playing back pre-recorded responses and/or touch-tones, which is most likely what you would need the shell script to do. However, you might be able to find more information by reading about a piece of software called Asterix; it handles the software side of a "PBX". I fear your cursing and terseness may have already put off many of the members of the mailing list that already have the knowledge to help with this task. Still, a new thread, with more specific questions, no cursing, and a more pleasant attitude may very well get you some better answers. Finally, while you currently make your order via phone, it may be that your distributor has a more easily automated method, so it may be worth talking to their customer support and exploring the other ordering options. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
