That explains it. I do not know about that version. I suggest the place to ask is on their list. 73, Steve N4IRS On 09/25/2016 11:12 AM, no1pc(a)yahoo.com wrote: > Yes, 3.18.10-3 from approx 4/2016 when I rebuilt the node from a > Crompton pkg. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > *From:* Steve Zingman <szingman(a)msgstor.com> > *To:* no1pc(a)yahoo.com > *Cc:* Jim Duuuude <telesistant(a)hotmail.com> > *Sent:* Sunday, September 25, 2016 7:45 AM > *Subject:* Re: [App_rpt-users] Change startup IP addr readout > > What version of the OS is this?

Change startup IP addr readout
by no1pc＠yahoo.com 25 Sep '16

How/from where is 'sayip.sh' (or equiv) called when a node boots up? I want to change that to something else - no sense telling the world some of my internal network details.

New server not starting asterisk relabily
by C B 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

Hi Testing a newly built Dial allstarlink server / nodes. The server is a HP DC5800 1 gig ram and 4 URI’s. The URI’s where done one at a time, downloading from theallstar web configuration. Sometimes it starts and sometimes it does not, sometimes itstays running after I type asterisk at the # prompt. The log below is some of the output after typing asterisk atthe # prompt then quickly asterisk –rvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv A similar problem that was experienced was due to ACPI. ACPI was disabled in the BIOS GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" was changed toGRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet acpi=off" However the server would not boot that way. Any help greatly appreciated. Chris

Node stays keyed after disconnect
by Bob Roszkowski 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

I was wondering if anyone else was having an issue with a node staying keyed after disconnecting from another node. If I key up again, the node will give courtesy tone then drop. If I connect through CLI, it works fine. Running DIAL on RPi. Sincerely, boB - W5EVH

Re: [App_rpt-users] IPV6 and upgrades --was: toy throwing
by Anthony Percy 21 Sep '16

Hi there, I haven¹t commented for a while on this group.. There is another way that we could go forward with the code About 18 months ago, I ported the pre DIAL version of Allstar to the ARCH version of linux as a package using the ARCH package tool called ³paceman².. Have a look at "https://github.com/anthcp?tab=repositories² for examples. My reasoning behind this was to make it easier to use Allstar with a standard linux, without having to install a new linux version every time. As you can see, this was mainly for the odroid and raspberry pi ARM platformsI did actually do an intel version as well. The code worked very well ( all credit to Jim & co) and a 10m repeater was on air for a year using this code What it forced me to do was to create two packages for allstar, one for the kernel (migrating to DAHDI) and the other for the user land code... Anyway, this could be a good way to go in that one could create packages say for kernel based IPv6 code and then make the package install look for these packages and configure accordingly, e.g use a modular packaging approach. Just another idea. Happy to be involved if you wish. Regards Anthony Percy, VK5QS (ex VK2ACP, G8NNE e.g callsigns are reassigned in Australia!)

Re: [App_rpt-users] propagate_dtmf=yes Not working
by Skyler F 21 Sep '16

So I guess it won't work for this case where the output of the RTCM master transmit heads off to a controller with auto patch. DTMF needs to be sent to the controller to control auto patch.

propagate_dtmf=yes Not working

I need to rebroadcast all DTMF out of the transmitter. I have enabled the function propagate_dtmf=yes in my rpt.conf. The tones are still being silenced, however out of my full duplex system running DSP. Any suggestions? Thanks, Skyler KD0WHB

failover
by Gregory 21 Sep '16

21 Sep '16

Hi all, Im looking for a few hints on now to failover to another private node if one fails. Say 5 nodes at 5 different locations are all connecting in to a central node. if the central node goes down i would like the remote nodes to try and connect to one other node. Is that possible?
