	We have a similar setup here and it took quite a few days before
the PBX was programmed right. It's now been working for more than a year
and we even get v.90 connections thru the PBX PRI. The big problem was
finding someone that understood what we were trying to do, I ended up
contact some people in the Bell (our local telco and pbx maintainer)
research center.
