If I dial 456 I get the message, so I type 04021305 (2nd April, 13:05).

On the console Asterisk reports the command Dial 04021305 exits non-zero.

You need 'Read' instead of 'Background'.

No, because his next line is _.,1 so it will actually use the extension.

His problem is just one of permissions. Maybe he should use a suid prog to set the date.
