asterisk users - Aug 2005 - Lock Extension

Hi All,

How can I lock the extension in Asterisk?
For example , my extension is 1000 and I am away for business trip. I 
want to lock my extension during my absence.
Can it be done in Asterisk?

regards,
Stephen

You could write a little script to mangle/unmangle your SIP context  
and then SIP RELOAD. You could assign it to a context called  
'disabled' whose only valid extension matching therein is to that  
same macro to authenticate and change your context back.
