Thanks, guys, Mike kb8jnm was able to give me the crucial info. Typing "sudo asl-menu" at the repeater prompt brings up the config menu. From there I was able to get the root password changed and initial set up of the node. I had done a node earlier this year but forgot to document what I had to do. All my notes date back to the older release when we didn't have to use sudo. Everything is good now. Cheers! Jon VA3RQ On 9/3/2018 2:24 PM, Pete Fierro wrote:
