I was keeping something like that in my private drawer for quite some time as the default-configuration fs comes with is a verbose example but by no means adequate or reasonable for generic deployments. I'd even move the definitions for sip-profile parameters from vars to the relevant profiles because fs-newbies are often confused by this separation and indirection which might lead to insecure setups. Anyway... your configuration seems a much easier starting point for most users.

I've managed quite a few freeswitch deployments until now and did some migrations from Asterisk to freeswitch due to issues with reliability or flexibility. As an office/corporate pbx I'd select freeswitch over asterisk any time. If something more specialized is needed, yate is worth a try. through a redundant SIP-Trunk to an VoIP Provider. Curious however about recommendations for VoIP providers in .ch there aren't that many around unfortunately. would love to hear some suggestions (backed by experiece). cheers, Michael ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

Re: [swinog] Notice of Copyright Infringement - How do you proceed?

Sure, and as a customer I'd expect from my ISP to do the very same. As long as they just want you to be notified about this incident everything is fine. What you however should underline in your conversation with them is that you have no possibilities to prove or falsify their claim. (this might set you free from any liablity since they can not claim that 'you knew'). Passing the notice to your customer without interacting with the entity that sends you the notice would be the way I'd go. It is of course also important to inform your customer that you can won't verify this claim as it is none of your business as an ISP to check what data your customers are exchanging. After all it is very likely that your customer doesn't even know about this problem as many of those requests i have seen have been for boxes that have been abused by third parties due to security issues for random undesired stuff. As concerns requests like these in general I stick to the policy as long as there is no official document like a search warrant i advise the enquiring entity to use the regular correct legal process if there is such thing like a search warrant i comply politely and do whatever is stated there with caring for the most minimal impact possible. my experience as netmaster for several isps and the as250.net project showed me that this is some sort of the golden way to keep your customers satisfied as well as to comply politely with the law where needed. kind regards, michael ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

Nope. If anybody wants you to do work for them - and forwarding messages to people, who's IP you'll have to grep out of Logfiles first (in the worst case) *is* work - this entity should pay for it. If it concerns dynamically allocated IP addresses I second this opinion, however if it costs you no work to identify the customer, why not forward the message? As long as it is not too much work, the customer will be happy or at least ammused about the mail. So if it costs you significant work to find out who had the ip address, silently discarding the mail is the way to go in deed. ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

That is what i meant to express - until you are forced by law to comply, don't do anything that might harm you or your customer. If this is the case - e.g. in the above stated UVEK-DBA - comply politely as far as minimally needed. I think we agree on that point. I'm not a lawyer, but if the ISP forward the information to the client, and if the client contacts the original sender of the mail, it's somthing like an indirect leak of information. Which would be in deed a very dumb thing to do as the customer. But I sometimes forget, that - at least some - customers don't always act very wisely. You got a point there in deed. There is no clear law on this subject (at least on Switzerland). As an ISP, I would ask my lawyer before doing something. Which costs money - often considerable amounts. So best thing until more evil things than anoying people sending you emails happen: Mail - Rundablage. cheers Michael___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
