THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE, DO NOT REPLY. The following task has a new comment added: FS#499 - add support to auth_db to validate source IP address User who did this - Alex Hermann (axlh) ---------- While i value contributions to Kamailio in general, i'm opposed to this one for several reasons, mainly because it is in the wrong place and completely redundant. - The module and function are for verifying digest authentication, i don't think IP checking should be part of it. It is illogical and confusing. - The functionality is enable by overloading the configuration of a table column name. Not very in intuitive. - The function is limited to only a single ip(-range) per username; not very flexible. The already existing method of achieving the very same functionality is already present in the ipops and, in a more flexible way, the permissions module. - The functionality is so __very__ trivial to implement in the config script using the ipops module (only taking 2 lines of script), i don't think the additional maintenance burden for the C code is worth it. - The added functionality is undocumented. - There is no return code to recognize the reason why "authentication" failed. I don't think this change should be accepted into Kamailio. ---------- More information can be found at the following URL: http://sip-router.org/tracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=499#comment1… You are receiving this message because you have requested it from the Flyspray bugtracking system.
