That would be the easiest way, but this is most likely not working that way:
The asterisk maintains an own user/password database, despite you use some 
other fancy realtime drivers. But in general, they are stored in clear text 
on the host, so that the admin can take a look at them. I have no clue, 
whether the asterisk is able to handle a password stored in e.g. ldap at 
all.

and another reason: sip is cleartext protocol, asterisk only supports SRTP, 
but not SIPS, as far as I know. Whether there is a VPN tunnel around it or 
not, makes no difference to that. All other protocols I have configured with 
ssl around it, or transfer cleartext protocols only on localhost...
