<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">This can be done using Digium phones; they have built-in support for selecting which 'user' they should be when they are reconfigured. It's slightly more complicated than a simple login/logout because it requires rebooting the phone, but it's there and it works. They even support the case where a user has a phone at their house, but comes into the office and 'steals' their extension away from the house phone; the house phone will then go into an automatic reconfiguration state and wait for someone tell it which extension it should 'be'... when the user returns home, they can 'steal' the extension back from the office.</div>

So if I understand correctly, the user reboots the phone when he arrives, and goes into the configure mode? Is it end user friendly, or complex? I still don't have a server with the Digium phone module on it to test.</div>
