caller id linux software

[Dawes, Stephen]

Hi Greg,

I was playing with something like this in the past.
What I did was take some perl scripts that captured the caller id and
then using dwall to transmit the information.
The problem that I was having, and never could feagure out what the
cause was, was that I would get stuck in an endless loop. This would
cause the samba client machine to lock u. A re-boot of the machine
running the samba client was the only to break the loop on that side,
and killing and restarting the process on the linux box was how I
stopped it the host side.

I haven't used it for a while, because of the looping issue. 

If I remember the program was cid and it is on sourceforge.

HTH.
