[App_rpt-users] Major Allstar Issue

[James Nessen]

If you attempt to look at your nodes through stats.allstarlink.org and
they aren't online, you will get the error message "Node XXXXX is no
longer in the database", don't panic because all this means is that
since your nodes aren't online they aren't reporting to the stats
server (and don't get a record in the reporting database).  Once your
issue gets resolved and your nodes are back online, they will
automatically re-appear on the page and life will be good again.

My goal was to connect to Echolink, but my commands weren't working.  The repeater would not key! I tried to reboot the computer but to a message telling me the command didn't exist.  I tried using shutdown, but got no result either.  I thought maybe the thing to do is reboot the computer from the power switch.  I did that, and could not log-in remotely.  The message I got was "access denied try later." Later, I remember when my micro node won't boot, you connect a keyboard to it, and hit F1.  I shutdown the computer from the power switch again, and performed this action.  The repeater is working, but when I try to connect remotely, I get "connection refused." I didn't change the port for SSH.
> Also, all three of my nodes have disappeared from the database.  When you bring up the system wide node list, nodes 28142, 28143, and 28504 indicate they've been removed from the database.  I never requested that! The 28142 node is my repeater, 28143 is my remote base, and 28504 was originally going to be used for a hub, but I've decided to make it a RTCM node.  This will take a while, because I need to gather the funds for the equipment.
