[asterisk-users] Locking phones at night...

[Marco Mouta]

A simple way would be:

IVR menu that locks the phone, using function DB(family/key), try show
function DB
in your dialplan.

With DB(family/key) you may insert data into AstDB ; you lock the phone

you may define family= LockedPhones , and the key is the callerid
number of the phone

With DB_EXISTS(family/key) you check if there is an entry to the
current phone inside AstDB, if exists the phone is locked no calls
available else dial!

With  DBdel(family/key) you may unlock the phone from dialplan.

with asterisk -rx database get and put you can manipulate astDB from
your web application.

Hope this helps
