Try setting these in the dialstring:

http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Channel_Variables#Caller_ID_Related

For example:

session = freeswitch.Session("{caller_id_name=Steve,caller_id_number=12345}user/"..dest);

If caller_id_* doesn't work try the effective_caller_id_* variable.

hi all,

while initiating a call from lua with 

session = freeswitch.Session("user/"..dest);

the calling number shown by the called party is "000000000"

is it possible to set the calling number to the actual number?
