[Asterisk-Users] Meetme and authentication

[Josh McAllister]

Perhaps you've already figured this out, but I posted an example
dialplan and small Perl AGI that would resolve this for you. As it
happens this was posted the Friday before you sent this. Look for a
posting from me on Friday, May 12th.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Meetme and authentication

 

Hi all, 

I have thoroughly read the available documentation and I can't seem to
find a workaround for my setup... 

I'm trying to create a phone conference line that users would call using
a unique phone number (no matter if they are moderators or just plain
users). I use Asterisk 1.2.6

The available conferences are defined as follows: 

conf => 1000,user pin1, moderator pin1 
conf => 1001,user pin2, moderator pin2 
conf => 1002,user pin3, moderator pin3 
... 
conf => 1009, user pin9, moderator pin9 

The users are prompted whether they are a moderator or a user. When they
choose, they are redirected to the conference they request:

- using options aAPsX for moderators (moderator + marked + ask PIN +
allow menu using *) 
- using options Psw for users (ask PIN + allow menu + wait for a marked
user) 

My problem is that if a user chooses the "moderator" option, he can
authenticate using any of the two PINs, and he can become an moderator
for the conference by knowing only the user PIN...

I think using two different phone numbers (one for users and one for
moderators) is neither practical nor safe. Is there a way to
authenticate users against only one of the password? For instance, math
the password provided against only the moderator PIN, or only the user
PIN.

Thank you for your help, 

Silviu 

PS. Here is the dialplan : 

[ConfStart] 
exten => s,1,Answer 
exten => s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=5) 
exten => s,3,Set(LANGUAGE()=conf) 
exten => s,4,Wait(1) 
exten => s,5,Background(welcome)        ; "welcome, press * if you are a
user of hold the line if you are a moderator" 

exten => *,1,MeetMe(|iMPsw|)    ; for regular users 
exten => t,1,MeetMe(|aAiMPsX|)  ; for moderators 

exten => i,1,GoTo(ConfStart,s,1)
