Hi Peter!

Welcome to FreeSWITCH! Glad to have you. These are great questions. FS has
a db command that can be executed from fs_cli, however this isn't what you
want/need for users. The user directory is where all that stuff is handled.
Static XML is, of course, in conf/directory/* and you can add/remove there,
but that doesn't sound like what you need. The best option for you right
now is to get up to speed with mod_xml_curl. Using mod_xml_curl you can
have FS poll a database each time there is a need, such as when there is an
auth challenge taking place.

We have several people who've done lots of mod_xml_curl stuff, so feel free
to ask away, but please check the wiki first since there is a lot of
information and examples there. You may also enjoy discussing this live in
#freeswitch channel on irc.freenode.net.
