Any one can have their own CUG and have VoIP phones across 
locations/geographies.  There is no restrictions on this.  The only condition 
is this should not have interconnection with the PSTN network within India.  
The vendors who provide IP based PABX in India have to provide different 
partitions one for the CUG and the other for the PSTN and need to give an 
undertaking that there is no interconnection between CUG and PSTN.

Connecting over WAN connection is also legal. But make sure that any of the
locations should not terminate/connect to PSTN.

But what abovt VoIP over intra-organisation, multi-location  WAN?

(connected by VSAT, just to make things more clear).

Most banks make their secure communications over this kind of networks
nowadays. Whether they take a separate clearance for this, is not
known (to me).

Terminating VoIP to PSTN is still illegal here. But people can use it(ATA
Adaptor) if suppose they have taken a US/Canada VoIP Connection and will use
it an telephone.

Connecting to IP-PBX is also not allowed and obviously inter-connecting to
PSTN is illegal as already said earlier.

[ilugd] off-topic-ish: insuring a linux laptop

2010-04-20 Thread Linux Lingam
dear all,

googling to see if i can get insurance-cover on my laptop
beyond its warranty period.
discovered the four major indian insurance companies supposedly offer
some fig-leaf of a cover.

oriental insurance, new india assurance, national insurance, united india
insurance:
http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100102230025AA9G16e


their individual websites are sketchy on details and costs.

what are your experiences:

1) how much does it cost?
2) what kind of tenures, benefits, bonuses, do you get?
3) what gets covered?
4) what is excepted?
5) does a policy cover national, international roaming?
6) do they offer cashless transactions/ or pay-now-reimburse-later?
7) how quick/difficult is a re-imbursement?
8) most important: do they have a problem or do they prefer laptops with
linux?
do they charge a premium, or do they do the sensible thing and offer a
discount and bonuses for potentially less downtime and data-hassles?
or, do they not care at all?

on another note, a friend tells me insurance companies do offer
insurance-policies for mobiles as well,
but policy-holders seldom get any value as the exceptions-list hardly leaves
any scope for a re-imbursement.

thanks for your answers in advance,
and hope linux-users and activists may soon lobby insurance companies
to offer discounts and bonuses for foss-adoption.


regards
niyam

Interesting... let me check...

Right you are, sko...@skoost.com was subscribed, probably when the 
mailing list had to be resurrected from its ashes.  Unsubscribed as we 
speak.

And thanks for the implicit list admin pester.  If enough people make a 
noise things happen, otherwise it's too easy to let them slide.  Not 
that list admin is my job anyway!

The original headers (esp. the 'Sender' header) of the original email are
wiped-off/replaced by mailman, so I'm not sure, but to be able to post to a
member-only GNU Mailman managed list, the address listed in the 'Sender'
header OR 'From' header must be the member of the list.

I would have expected very amusing emails to wind up on the mailing

Hadn't noticed the sender's address in this case. It is curious. The
ones I had examined earlier had the email id of the 'victim' as the
sender.

The frequency and variation of these invites (esp. from well-known

likely is people who've added people to their addressbooks with the

I do not know about this site, but I suspect that more often than not,
it comes under 'social  engineering'.

A 'social networking' site has it easy if the password used for
registering is the same as the one used for the mail account!

Hence, 'feeblemindedness' is a bit too strong. A friend, who is quite
well known in IT and Computer Engineering fell victim to such an error
a couple of year ago.
