Tim, I can connect to it from my location (IF) I connect right after I disconnect after having connected from his node to me via ssh. I see this bidirectionally on the tcpdump on his system. If I then disconnect and try to connect from another location or this same location later I see nothing on tcpdump and I get - [Jan 11 00:20:36] NOTICE[9224]: chan_iax2.c:4071 __auto_congest: Auto-congesting call due to slow response -- Hungup 'IAX2/71.185.222.180:4569-697' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-546901569' -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-1177483345' at my end. I really think this is a router issue. The router has been reset. Not sure where to go from here. Is there a setting on this router for persistent NAT? This is node 29971 at IP 71.185.222.180 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Incoming connects From: tim.sawyer@mac.com Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2014 20:29:46 -0800 CC: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org To: doug@crompton.com Do a “tcpdump port 4569” at the Linux command line and incite a connect from another node. You should see inbound packets. I have seen ISP’s block port 4569 but not FiOS. I’m on FiOS with an actiontek router and it works fine. -- Tim :wq On Jan 10, 2014, at 7:41 PM, Doug Crompton <doug@crompton.com> wrote:I am remotely trying to troubleshoot a friends new Allstar installation. I can ssh in and connect out to nodes but I cannot connect in to the system from external nodes. Port 4569 is forwarded. I discovered this link - http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/IAX about consistent NAT and I was wondering if that might be the problem. I was able to connect in one time right after a reboot which might support the NAT issue. The router is an Actiontek MI424WR GigE as supplied by Verizon on their FIOS system. Is anyone else having a problem with this router or have any ideas on this? Nothing is logged at the server or shows up in the client on the system which kind of points to a routing failure. Is there a good way to check for open port 4569 as I don't think normal port scan programs will check this. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users
