[App_rpt-users] Changing Courtesy Tones, and SSHing into the computer

Skyler, welcome to the experience, and congrats on your repeater.

 

sshd_config port 22 is ok

 

To access your server just enter the IP address: “10.0.1.1” for Host. The
server may display “root@” etc, but that is not part of the host descriptor.

 

I have my rpt called sounds located in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rpt

 

When you call a sound from rpt.conf, just use its name, and not the
extension (leave off the .ulaw) 

 

Remember, Linux is case sensitive: “sound” does not equal “Sound”

 

It appears your third and last question are related. I suspect your node is
not registering with Allstarlink.org. You have something missing or a typo
in a configuration file. Check extensions.conf, iax.conf, and rpt.conf.

 

Thanks,

Bob

Subject: [App_rpt-users] Changing Courtesy Tones,and SSHing into the
computer

 

Hello, 

I am new ham in high school, and finally got a little SIMPLEX repeater up
and running.

My first question

 Is about SSHing into the computer remotely. I first gave it a try on my
LAN, because I knew port forwarding would not be required. 

First, I Changed the port 222 to port 22 on the SSHD_Config file

 

We are using an apple airport router, which states the LAN address of the
Ethernet port is 10.0.1.1. I typed ssh root at 10.0.1.1, and I got a connection
refused. 

I was able to reverse SSH back to my macintosh using ssh
username at computersLANip from ACID, but when I tried to SSH back to acid, it
would not work. Just Connection Refused. 
 

After I login on ACID it says Root at Skylersnode, my node, and I also gave ssh
root@<node number> and ssh skylersnode at local IP a try, but still no success.


 

Are there any suggestions on getting this to work?

 

Second question: Courtesy tones,

 

I just figured out how to create a ULAW on audacity, and mount a flash drive
on the command, and I am wondering if I can change the courtesy tones or any
other audio file. Like the "I OWN COMMAND" annoying thing.  Where would the
courtesy tones be located, and under what file name? 

 

Third question: why it wont work on the web transceiver

When I dial in the node on the web transceiver, nothing happens, and when I
hit the connect button, it does not do anything. Is there any way to get it
to work, or will the web transceiver not work with my node. I would think it
should work, because I have almost the same setup as Willem's node, 29571
<https://allstarlink.org/portal/webtransceiver-frameset.php?nodenum=29571>
,on saddle back mountain.



Last Question: Won't connect to 28298 or 28299

This node is part of the FUN system here in Colorado, and I tried dialing
28298, which belongs to Jeff KØJSC, but I heard nothing, not even the change
in courtesy tone.  He has no idea why my node will not connect up, but it is
weird because it won't even show up on the web transceiver. 

Thanks
