Summary:                    No way to set pin for new ConfBridge conferences.
Description: 
If I configure a conference room in meetme.conf with a pin (i *think* this
is the place we are supposed to do this?) then setup my dialplan to send a
user to that conference, there is no pin requirement. In addition, and this
is where I'm uncertain if this is even supposed to work, any settings in
meetme.conf seem to be blatantly ignored by ConfBridge.

I have no idea where this documentation came from, as it is apparently
inaccurate, but this site says I *can* set a pin on ConfBridge in the
dialplan: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+ConfBridge

But instead it just thinks the ",pin#" part of the dialplan command is
part of the options list. I notice that doing "core show application
confbridge" in the asterisk console while running -rc3 and -rc6 does not
say anything about a pin whatsoever.

I am not sure where to look, but as far as official asterisk documentation
I cannot find any way to set a pin on a conference created with ConfBridge.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
It seems whoever wrote the documentation on voip-info.org is incorrect --
there does not appear to be any pin functionality in app_confbridge (I just
looked through the code for 'pin' and got nothing).

If you wish to implement pins for conferences, you could do this with th
Read() application prior to entering the conference via app_confbridge
using some dialplan logic.
