[asterisk-users] OT - GEOPRIV and location based SIP services

[dave cantera]

to all,
I had a similar thought... what I came up with was, not my idea just saw 
it done somewhere else, a small windows binary that was exectued on 
login. registered your login name with a server (content filter in that 
case)... any browser requests were logged for filtering and tracking 
purposes. you could just as well match up the username and hostname to 
an on-site database and know where the person was.

I was told the utility was a common open source utility but you'd have 
to be a windoes guy to know it... 'sam' might be the code 
name...maybe... hmmm...
a quick check on google yielded: registry security accounts manager 
(*sam*) hive from the system volume information folder... couldn't find 
any source code though...
