It will depend on what type of switch you are connected to
and maybe the software version...

I was doing it here in Atlanta out of the Buckhead CO on a DMS500 without
any problems at all, a hunt group on the DMS worked for both CSV and CSD.
Now, over at the Toco Hills CO on a 5ESS it was much more difficult,
I had originally gotten my sales rep to put in the order for
a hunt group, and ended up with a voice-only hunt (because of
software limitations of the 5E) and had been talking with one of the
switch techs about the lack of data-hunting, and came across
a suggestion on this mail list to do the Call-forwarding-busy
for the data and let the standard hunt group take the voice.
I'm sure you've already seen the telco instructions at:

It does work, you just have to find a tech that can/will do it,
because you're won't have as much luck asking a sales rep
or anyone else in the business office...
