We've also noticed this problem. We can't make outgoing Centrex calls from our MAX (4-digit dialing in our case, but also to PacBell) when running 5.0Ap16 or higher. We're running 5.0Ap13 now which we determined to be the last release where outgoing Centrex calls still work as before. We've called Ascend several times over this issue since early October. We have an open trouble ticket (#150564), and we most recently spoke to Loretta Li last week to get it escalated, but haven't heard back from anyone yet. Could this problem be related to the addition of the NumPlanID and PRI # Type fields to System->SysConfig in 5.0Ap16?
