[Serusers] Using RPID in location database

[Patrick Jordan-Smith]

Thanks for your explination Greger :-)

I guess what I'm asking is that I want a way to enforce that the AOR is
what it should be - the PBX contacts SER to get at the end user phones,
but the end users are allowed to change the configuration on them. So we
need some way to make sure someone doesn't register with someone elses
address, since the address and the username seem to be seperate things.

Thanks,
