[asterisk-users] File structure question

[Jay Moore]

I have a question on how I can better organize my .conf files.

I have 3 different groups of people who use my VoIP service. Let's call 
them 'Office', 'Factory' and 'Public'. In my Asterisk directory, I have 
created three folders: 'office', 'factory' and 'public', inside each of 
which has a sip.conf and an extensions.conf file with appropriate 
account and extension information.

Say, for example, I need to limit some users of the 'Public' group so 
they cannot make calls outside the building. Obviously I would create 
two separate contexts. One for users who can make calls outside the 
build, and one for users who cannot. I would then assign the appropriate 
context to each user.

Right now, I have each appropriate context defined in the main 
extensions.conf. What I'd like to do is reduce the clutter in 
extensions.conf and move each context into the extensions.conf in the 
appropriate subfolder. How do I tell the main extensions.conf file to 
include the other extensions.conf files without putting an #include 
<file> in a context of its own?

I hope what I've explained makes sense. If not, please ask questions and 
I'll try to answer.

Thanks much,
Jay
