Does anyone know of a way to force the voicemail password for users to be of a certain length? We've setup operator=yes within our voicemail.conf and want to have the users use a long password to prevent possible guessing by external parties. I'm not seeing any such option in my research. If it doesn't exist it might be a decent feature. Thanks.

AFAIK, this doesn't exist. However, you could disable password changing in the voicemail application and set it from the dialplan and force a minimum length there. _____ From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Darrin Henshaw Sent: Thursday, June 18, 2009 12:50 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [asterisk-users] Voicemail Password Does anyone know of a way to force the voicemail password for users to be of a certain length?

I started looking into it, checking out voicemail.conf (1.2) to get an idea of a good name to call the parameter and I found this: ; If you need to have an external program, i.e. /usr/bin/myapp called when ; a voicemail password is changed, uncomment this: externpass=/usr/bin/myapp Who knew?
