Yes, it is specifically their G729 license implementation. They're required by the patent holders to use some method to prevent you using the same licence on other servers. Other people will use various methods but many will probably go for the MACs. It's a pretty common method that works on any OS. It's the same one that Digium use for their G729 codec: http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/codec_g729/README "It is extremely important that you backup all of the files located in the /var/lib/asterisk/licenses directory. This directory contains the Host-ID specific license files for your system. *****These license files are tied to the MAC address of all the ethernet devices installed in your system*****. Creating a backup of this directory will allow you to restore your G.729 license file in case you need to reinstall your operating system. This will help prevent the need to contact Digium to request authorization to increment your G.729 key and from needing to purchase a new G.729 key if you exceed the maximum number of G.729 key increments allowed." (That doesn't mean you can use Digium G729 licenses on FS btw - you can't). -Steve On 3 February 2011 14:06, mazilo <Nabble@slickdeals.endjunk.com> wrote:

That's what's been indicated by Brian in the past... though it could always be linked to other hardware details too.
I have no way to confirm this with other vendors, but it sounded like this only applies to a G729 license bought from FS.
