[App_rpt] Asterisk configuration for node with no locally connected RF and chan_rtpdir

[Tony Langdon, VK3JED]

Just in the process of setting up an Asterisk node (AllStar 
2199).  At this time, the node has no local RF hardware (I am 
seriously considering adding a Kenwood remote base early next year), 
but I want to have a link to a remote system using chan_rtpdir, which 
will link to an established system.

I have some sample configs, and the N9YTY notes, but those notes 
assume a local RF link.

What I want to do is accept connections to AllStar node 2199 and have 
those linked to the rtpDir system.  And from the other end, I want to 
be able to connect to other AllStar nodes.

Anyone able to offer insight on this configuration?

My current Asterisk installation is a hand compiled system (app_rpt 
is included).  I didn't use EVB or ACID, because Asterisk is 
installed on an existing IRLP node, and I didn't want to wipe the 
system (for obvious reasons!).

I may also look into configuring the system to link to the local IRLP 
node on demand, once I've got the hang of driving Asterisk.

I played with Asterisk a long time ago and was able to set it up as a 
reasonable PBX with VoIP and a single analog line, but I'm a bit 
rusty now and I've never used app_rpt before.
