That isnt bad service, just wonder if that will hold up if you have many new signups all requesting that at the same time stuff breaks, or is this a promo service? > ps : dont forget to help out the community at > http://blackhole.theclubvoip.com > > here is an idea, why not roll that into an enum style service where a client can do a enum query, if it exists they can either TTS an err message (perhaps "err:message here" ??) otherwise the call goes through. This would be trivial for you guys to create a little check macro using asterisk's enum, be more or less portable with other services that have enum already installed (by creating a null route perhaps for types sip and whatever) be RBL style more or less (not identical but ...) and easier for people to query in general. powerdns for example is a dns server that takes many backends incl mysql/postgres so you can easily integrate this with whatever front end web whatever... You could even have different 'zones' voipspam, fraud, suspicious, etc. and people could select which enum entries they want based on subdomains. Although I dont think asterisk allows you via the dialplan to limit calls based on SRC IP you could include IPs as well as numbers and do both inbound as well as outbound filtering. I am curious though what verification is done on a number to say that its 'bad' as opposed to someone doesnt like someone else so they submit all their numbers in the hopes of causing that person grief. Then there are people that scream fraud becuase they screwed up and didnt charge their costs, even on fixed cost numbers (people have claimed that +448xx excluding 800 (although those are banned many places becuase its a 8* block) are fraud even though the termination costs for each class of service in the 8xx range is fixed - they just charged a geographic rate instead of a non-geo rate). So anyway to be clear, what is the verification process for a number to be blacklisted? -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel Belfast IE +44 28 9099 6461 DE +49 801 777 555 3402 Utrecht NL +31 306 553058 US WA +1 360 207 0479 US NY +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.trxtel.com we pay you to terminate calls with us!
