Ok all you guru's, I downloaded the current ASL.img program, installed it and ran it, populated the first time user setup routine. I hope I got it right. I currently can't connect to a station or node like Larry KR6AZ node 46822. Are there any Elmer's out there that can help in Laymans terms too? some of this stuff is way over my head at times. I bet I have to open a Port up, which ones? Also, info I have the Pi3 as the computer. Also running a RIM-RC210/RLC to the RC210 repeater controller. If you can please try my node 47379 to see if it works from your end. Is there a decent manual for the ASL version of Allstar? I may have missed it, so tell me where. I did download the HAMVIOP version manual but that was confusing and didn't jive with ASL's to much so i didn't venture there too much. I also didn't find a Apache http//: program in there while Putty'ing around, is there one? By the way I also have IRLP 7966 that works great on a pi...and the echolink too.. By the way thanks in advance.
