Ok, got it. In the actual woody version of the default device.ipppX script
the $LEADINGZERO variable is completely missing. I was used to the potato
version where you must not add the leading zero to ther REMOTEMSN, because it
was done by the script. Now you have to.
I'm just wondering why the comments have not been changed.

Yes, I know. Maybe I haven't explained exactly enough what I meant and that
also doesn't explain the purpose of the isdn.conf block above, but doesn't
matter, it's not that important.
Thank you anyway!
