And included a bit more information on <BR>> what I am
trying to accomplish. <BR>> <BR>> Solution 1 (preferred) <BR>> <BR>> I am working on an asterisk installation where most end users will use <BR>> softphones. If I am not able to lock down calling to one phone at a <BR>> time, the end users will share their login information with friends, <BR>> family, neighbors, and the some girl they meet on myspace. <BR>> <BR>> Currently, I am able to register two phones at separate locations with <BR>> the same account on each phone and make concurrent calls. <BR>> <BR>> For example, If I login extension 333 at location A, and 333 at location <BR>> B, simultaneous calls can be placed from both phones at the exact same <BR>> time. I only want calls placed from extension 333 to work from either A <BR>> or B not A and B concurrently. <BR>> <BR>> Here is my ideal solution. Location A wants to make a call, but location <BR>> B has a call in progress. Location B has to either close their phone, or
<BR>> hang up before Location A can make the call. <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> OR.. Solution 2. :) <BR>> A way I can distinguish in my CDR the IP address or some other <BR>> recognizable difference between the two locations when they make <BR>> concurrent calls using the same extension. The complication here is; I <BR>> can currently the log IP addresses, but as the end phones are on the <BR>> internet, Nat'd, and I am using a siparator for traversal. As a result, <BR>> my logs show the IP address of the siparator and I don't have any other <BR>> data to distinguish the end phones. <BR>> <BR>> OR.. Solution 2.5 <BR>> One thought I've had is to send logs from the siparator to a syslog <BR>> server, parse them, hunt for simultaneous calls placed by the same <BR>> accounts from different locations, and bill the end users accordingly. <BR>> But I really dislike this idea as no one likes to be hit with <BR>> surcharges. <BR>> <BR>> Any
help or insight is greatly appreciated. <BR>> <BR>> Thanks again, <BR>> Bryan Mahin <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> -----Original Message----- <BR>> From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com <BR>> [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Eric <BR>> "ManxPower" Wieling <BR>> Sent: Wednesday, April 05, 2006 7:50 PM <BR>> To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion <BR>> Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to restrict simultaneous phone <BR>> registrations <BR>> <BR>> Bryan Mahin wrote: <BR>> > Hello all, <BR>> > <BR>> > I am looking for a way to restrict users from logging in two separate <BR>> > phones with the same authorization name/password at the same time. <BR>> > Meaning, I only want users to be able to place a call from one phone <BR>> in <BR>> > one location, but have the ability to move from computer to computer. <BR>> > Has anyone found any sort of solution fo
