Bug#312770: asterisk: Does not change password with external application

[Andres Junge]

Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.0.7.dfsg.1-2
Severity: important


When one is using the externpass option in voicemail.conf, it does call
the application but it does not change the vm password internaly.
Looking at the source code (apps/app_voicemail.c) in function
vm_change_password_shell() the function reset_user_pw() is not called,
so the password in the linked list is not updated, one needs to reload
the application for the chage to take effect.

Hope this helps.

Salu2
Andrés
