Hi Michael, short answer is no. I regularly back up my nodes by
copying the entire Asterisk directory and save it on my local pc. If
I need to make a new box I just throw Acid in and let it build the
default node 1999. After I set up time and ssh and so on I just
copy over the asterisk directory. Restart Asterisk and BAM youre
done. Now the rule about waiting 5 - 10 mins for your node to
propagate through the network still stands though. <br>

I've placed the original PC back into service (I check into the
WinSystem Insomniac Net most nights) as I needed to be on the
air! <br>
When I did this, I was not able to link to nodes immediately, I
got a "connection failed" message for around 10 minutes before I
could link again, I have experienced this before when the server
has been turned off for extended periods (on vacation). <br>
<br>
I did not have both servers (new and old) running at the same
time... and I forwarded UDP 4569 to the new internal IP address.
<br>
<br>
While looking at "asterisk -r" with the new server, after the
digits were decoded to link to node 3560 (*32560), I did not get
a connection failed message back... just the normal telemetry
beep (sounds like DTMF). <br>
<br>
I'm going to fire up the new server again tonight and leave it
going for a while and see what happens. <br>
<br>
My original question still stands.... do I need to transfer
anything else over to the new server apart from the .conf files
found in <i class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>etc/asterisk<span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i> ?? Will this be enough to
transfer the "identity" of the server to a new machine? <br>
<br>
Michael. <br>

if you node is off line for a period of time, it will take 10
-15 min before the extenodes list file gets pushed out from the
Allstar server to all the nodes. Even if you node shows up in
the stats pages. <br>
If your node is not in the other nodes list then you cannot
connect. That is because those nodes don't know what your IP
address is. <br>
<br>
So just wait 5 -10 min then try again. <br>

That very thing happened to me yesterday. If you look at
asterisk -r, <br>
is it trying to connect? For some reason yesterday when I
rebooted my <br>
machine it took 5 trying to get the node to register with the
network <br>
then it took off. <br>
<br>
I was able to make connections again. <br>
