There is no way to bulk update passwords, however, if your extensions have voicemail pins, you can link them just by using empty passwords in the fop2users table. You will also need to comment one line in a php file so it lets you set blank passwords if you create new users. The modification is to comment the line: if($secret=='') { $secret=$exten; } So it loos like this: //if($secret=='') { $secret=$exten; } In function fop2_edit_user in /var/www/html/fop2/admin/functions.php, around line 440. That way, any empty password you set for a user will be converted to the voicemail pin.

User information is stored in the fop2users mysql table. You can write a script to perform any kind of mass update you need to perform. There is no way to perform mass update on users via the FOP2 Manager or GUI. Regarding the password when a new user is created.. FOP2 will try to use the voicemail pin if any, if there is no such pin, it will default to the extension number. There is also a change password plugin you can install so users can change/reset their passwords if they want to.

You can configure buttons manually, or modify the fop2buttons table "context" field for your extensions by hand, but maybe this will break transfers to those extensions with the modified context if that context does not include the local extensions. To test it out, with phpmyadmin or the mysql command line client modify the context field for a particular extension, and set it to your custom context name. After that, restart fop2 and try again. Something like this, assuming your extension is "100" and your custom context is named "onlyLocal" myslq -u root -p asterisk -e "UPDATE fop2buttons SET context='onlyLocal' WHERE exten='100'"
