OK I've obviously lost it here :-)
But please help:

I am trying to bring up a new box (ACID) on a PC and attempting my first
ever configuration via portal ever.
Thought I'd try this for fun all my others have been manual config and
that was 6 months ago.
I'm trying to get a feel and familiarity with the new system.
Which so far looks absolutely awasome!! wow a LOT of work as gone on while
I was away!


Of course I have alreadey setup a server and a node and the node is *not*
set for manual configuration.

When I try to run the  Allstar Portal Node Setup Script
I am being told quite plainly that I'm suplying incorrect credentials.

------
Enter your Allstar Portal user id: n8lbv
Enter your Allstar Portal password:
Invalid username or password
-------

Can you tell me exactly what credentials it's looking for and where do I
find/get/change them??

I already of course have my correct credentials for the admin portal
and can create servers nodes etc.
The credentials for that site do not work here.

Neither do my node ID and note password work here.

If you could please point me in the right direction that'd be awesome!!

I've pretty sure I'm obviously missing something here!
I probably need to just read the directions 10 more times.

A side note:

Initial Portal-Generated Configuration Download

This only applies to servers that are set to have the Portal generate
configuration files for them.

In order to configure your server to allow the Portal to generate
configuration files for the server, you first must download a local
configuration shell script and execute it. Please do the following:

cd /tmp
curl -L https://allstarlink.org/config/portalconfig.sh -o foo.sh
sh foo.sh ; rm foo.sh

*Seems* to be already taken care of on the latest ACID CD Image..

I've tried it both ways getting the script/running it and using the
portal config prompts already supplied on the latest image..

Still stuck on the credentials issue.




Thanks!

Steve
