[Asterisk-Dev] Asterisk with MySQL

[Brian Wilkins]

When do you want to perform authentication? Registration or on placing call? 
If it's placing call, I use the mysql addon that you can checkout from cvs by 
doing cvs checkout asterisk-addons. The application is called 
app_addon_sql.mysql. It can be called from your dialplan and you could 
possibly perform queries based on the ${CALLERIDNAME}, depending on how you 
plan to authenticate. There are plenty of creative ways to do authentication 
and the addon MYSQL allows you to perform authentication in your dialplan.
