Sorry, i did not get to this message before i fired the followup post.
Thanks Mr Reed for the repsonse. As a followup question:

how do you identify the roaming users from the local users?? the calls table
seems to list them together without the domain (since i strip the domain).

also, when we setup the roaming servers and domains, there is an option to
specify the cost. is this item used? if so, where in the calls table is this
found?
