Hi,
I have two queries bases upon the topic.
1. What filed can i use from the subscriber table to assign each user,
upon registration a DID to make them reachable from pstn. That field
will be used as 'username' in the aliases table to implement this
functionality (an insertin into aliases...), then do a lookup(aliases)
in ser.cfg. If my approach is wrong, kindly guide.
2. IS the ser->timezone filed really needed.
Thanks
Ashutosh

Hi all
i'm planing to create a simple application interface to administer
subscriber
and alias data directly in the mysql db backend (i will use
Andreas Granig's userloc-cl module).
Looking at the mysql database that comes with ser,
there seem to be a
lot of fields in the subscriber and aliases table that are not
needed by
ser itself but only by serweb. Do i get this right?
If so, is there any specification of the fields that
are required by
ser (incl. valid value range) so i know which fields i have to
administer? Are there any fields needed by ser which i may not touch?
If there is no such documentation, maybe someone knows and would be
willing to
place a few comments to the table listings below?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Kind regards
Frank
The ones needed for ser, I'll comment (and what they're needed for as
far as I know... please feel free to make corrections)
subscriber
------------------------
phplib_id
username (needed -- this is just as it says, the username someone
registers with...
either a word or a number)
domain (needed -- this is the domain for that user.
Multiple domains
are supported, so SER needs a way of knowing which users to put
with
which domains)
password (needed -- this is the plaintext password
for the user)
first_name
last_name
phone
email_address (needed for things like SEMS in order to send
voicemail... not
otherwise necessary)
datetime_created
datetime_modified
confirmation
flag
sendnotification
greeting
ha1 (needed -- this is an md5 of the string
"<username>:<domain>:<password>" needed if you're
using digest
authentication)
ha1b (needed -- another md5 string... this one is
"<username@domain>:<domain>:<password>" )
allow_find
timezone
rpid
domn
uuid
aliases
------------------------
username (needed -- this is the alias itself i.e. what someone would
dial to get
the original user)
domain (I imagine it's needed for multiple
domains, but no matter what
I set my SIP_DOMAIN to, it's always blank on mine)
contact (this is a SIP URI of the actual username
which the alias maps
to. sip:originaluser@domain.com )
received
expires (needed -- a date in the past makes this permanent)
q
callid
cseq
last_modified
replicate
state
flags (not sure what this is for or if it's needed)
user_agent
The rest of those are all superfluous and not absolutely necessary.
