[OpenSIPS-Users] B2BUA "From" Header & Caller-ID Question

[Anca Vamanu]

Hi Brett,

The b2bua generates a new request with the info from the received one. 
The problem is with the changes upon a request not being visible to the 
following functions called from the script.
So you have to change the header on the generated one, in local route.

Regards,
Anca
