You're using the variables wrong.

This is what you could do is either:
exten => s,1,NoOp(${ENV(HOSTNAME)})
or
In globals section
;; Defing hostname
host=${ENV(HOSTNAME)})
In you dailplan section
exten => s,1,NoOp(${host})

You will manage,

Hi,

I can't read a environment variable in a asterisk dialplan.
When logged in as user root on the system an 'echo $HOSTNAME'
gives the hostame of the machine.
Asterisk (1.4) is started from the same console.

I try to read it like this:
exten => s,n,NoOp(host=${ENV(HOSTNAME)})

Does anyone know what i am missing?

Ipv een saaie e-mail een leuk videobericht? Ga naar/

I explicitly pass it to Asterisk in this snippet from my
/etc/init.d/asterisk file.

daemon\
env -i\
HOST=$HOST\
PATH=/usr/local/bin/:/bin/\
nice --adjustment=-20\
$ASTERISK $START_OPTIONS

Thanks in advance,

Uhhh... just

export HOSTNAME

should be enough once it's been set.
