Greetings from the Isle of Man, We seldom use Echolink for outgoing connections but, with an influx of visitors for the Isle of Man TT races this week, we've seen a couple of stations trying to connect "back home" via Echolink - and failing. The issue seems to be that AllStar is unaware of the nodes that the users are trying to connect to. An example is ON0VOS-L (node 356825). If I issue the command "asterisk -rx "database show" | grep ON0" I get a list of entries similar to ON0VOS, but not the one that I'm interested in. Also, comparing with the current logins page on the Echolink site. There are a lot of other nodes missing from the Allstar database. Does anyone know why this might be and what I can do about it? I want our visitors to be able to leave with a favourable view of AllStar and even if I have to fudge a nasty hack to make the desired nodes accessible, I'll do it! Here's a clipping of sections of the response to the database show command mentioned above. /echolink/a/call/ON0OST-R : 82010:91.181.37.10 /echolink/a/call/ON0RCL-R : 377156:83.101.44.168 /echolink/a/call/ON0TLO-R : 488668:193.22.239.31 /echolink/a/call/ON0WL-R : 409331:81.83.131.158 /echolink/a/call/ON0WV-R : 357361:91.181.123.174 /echolink/b/call/ON0OST-R : 82010:91.181.102.165 /echolink/b/call/ON0RCL-R : 377156:83.101.44.168 /echolink/b/call/ON0TLO-R : 488668:193.22.239.31 /echolink/b/call/ON0WL-R : 409331:81.83.131.158 /echolink/b/call/ON0WV-R : 357361:91.181.69.224 /echolink/b/nodenum-call/160278 : ON0LIR-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/171471 : ON0GRC-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/187696 : ON0LG-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/282623 : ON0KTK-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/352778 : ON0DVS-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/357361 : ON0WV-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/368568 : ON0KB-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/377156 : ON0RCL-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/394137 : ON0LN-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/409331 : ON0WL-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/429437 : ON0BA-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/45573 : ON0AN-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/47009 :ON0LFE-L /echolink/b/nodenum-call/488668 : ON0TLO-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/522270 : ON0LIL-L /echolink/b/nodenum-call/81560 : ON0GB-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/82010 : ON0OST-R /echolink/b/nodenum-call/93644 : ON0LIM-R Whilst copying this lot, I saw the following on the Asterisk CLI: -- Received OK from Echolink server server1.echolink.org -- Directory pgm done downloading(partial,compressed), 739 records -- new CALL=ON0VOS-L,ip=81.165.69.72,name= 145.337,5 FM Aha!, I thought - an update. So I re-ran the database show command and it came up empty again. No sign of ON0VOS in the database So, the download is being received but it's not updating the database. Can the entry be added manually? What am I missing here? Thanks David Osborn GD4HOZ
