asterisk users - Feb 2005 - How does the g.729 registration program work?

I'm asking because I'm planning to install multiple machines from the
same image and I need to know what file(s) I need to backup/restore to
make sure I don't lose my licences in the process. The only options I
can think of are:

- There's a config file, though I've seen no mention of it
- The actual binary shared library is modified
- The system contacts Digium every time you start asterisk

In the last case nothing is changed at all and I'm fine.

Thanks in advance,

It is based on a machine unique key created by querying your hardware.
You will not be able to share your licenses between machines. You will
need to buy licenses for each machine you deploy on.

You misunderstand. Ofcourse I need to run the register program on the
machine itself. The point is I build them from images and every now and
then I roll out a new image. My question is, what do I need to preserve
from the previous image to keep the licences. Obviously reformatting
the disk and reregistering is not going to work.

So what will???

Thanks in advance,

First, You need to know about how email messages are "threaded". You
replied to a message in the "How does the g.729 registration program
work" thread, written by Kristian Kielhofner. Your message has nothing
to do with the message you responded to.

Next. You need to provide critical information such as what version of
asterisk you are using. If it is from CVS, you MUST provide the date it
was last updated.

Most likely you are running an old version that had a memory leak with
variables not being freed properly. I say that because the first message
above looks like you have run out of ram and swap.
