I would like to allow my remote users to dial in from their homes, cells, etc., and instruct Asterisk to forward calls made to their office extension to a number of their choosing. The wiki entry on "Asterisk call forwarding" shows how to do this. For security purposes, I would like to front-end this by asking the user to supply a password for their extension. Ideally, this would be their voicemail password. Is there a cmd I can use in extensions.conf to check extension and password against the voicemail database?
The only thing that comes to mind for me is loading the voicemail configuration from a database, and using an AGI that can read that database to authenticate and process your call forwarding.
An upside to this might be the ability to allow users to change their own password(which I'm not sure they can do with voicemail.conf).
