David,

	That was not my post, but here is a good way to do DISA:

[disa]
exten => 1000,1,Read(FROMEXT,vm-extension,4)
exten => 1000,2,DBget(EXTPASS=DISAPass/${FROMEXT})
exten => 1000,3,Authenticate(${EXTPASS})
exten => 1000,4,DigitTimeout,5
exten => 1000,5,ResponseTimeout,5
exten => 1000,6,DISA,no-password|friends
exten => 1000,103,Playback(invalid)
exten => 1000,104,Goto(default,s,1)

If you include this context in default (or whatever context for incoming 
calls), you could dial extension 1000.

You would get prompted for your extension (this case 4 digits, change to 
whatever your extensions are).
You would be prompted for your 4 digit pin.
You would then get a dial tone.  You could dial out to wherever you 
needed to go in the "friends" context.  Change this to match your 
"internal" context, i.e. the context your SIP phones, etc. would have.

You will need to know a bit about the Asterisk DB, etc. to use this, but 
that info is over at the Wiki.
