Nice names vs secure names

[ira]

In my Asterisk my SIP extensions are named things like SIP/101klcdkfiefnvjdfas and SIP/102klcdkfiefnvjdfas to make it difficult to hack. My extensions.conf handles turning a dialed 101 into SIP/101klcdkfiefnvjdfas. Is there any way in FOP2 to map a nice name to a complicated name? I looked but didn't see any way to do it. I've been going to install FOP for a long time and finally did today, but without something to allow this, it's really hard to remember the login codes and reading the screen is messy at best.

FOP2 does not care about nice or ugly names, it just needs a device name to monitor, you can have

[SIP/101uglystringlongsecurity]
type=extension
extension=101
context=some-context
label=Nice Name

As you see, you have your ugly device, and then a nice name for the button label.

So, I did that and it still shows the name in

[SIP/LongUglyName]

and not either of the ones in
extension=101
or
label=NiceName

The other concern is logging in. it looks like the login name must be the long ugly name which is more the problem from my perspective.

I did "service fop2 restart" which seemed to stop and then start fop2 but it still shows the long ugly name.

Thanks so much for your help.

Ah, a bit more playing and now it all makes sense. Sorry for the confusion, it's all working now.
