Why would you need to do that?? The [nodes] clause in rpt.conf is "looked at" first when attempting to determine a node's potential IP address. So, whatever you want to override (or augment) the "normal" list of stuff, put in the [nodes] clause in rpt.conf. That has a "custom" hook in it, so you can even put an "extension" of the [nodes] clause in custom/rpt.conf (using the "[nodes](+)" type of syntax.

There are many ways to achieve this. I will mention 2 in theory off the top of my head. Either a node in your mesh network needs to have a "gateway to the internet" that you can connect to for updates OR A node in your mesh network that has a internet gateway needs to "get the updated node list" to "make available to those in the mesh". There are many ways to scheme this but just Change the pointed address for the node update to the address of the mesh node containing the update file. It is possible to propagate the node list across your mesh network. Perhaps others will chime in with other ways or more detailed methods. ...mike/kb8jnm -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [App_rpt-users] manual changes in /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodes From: "torben@klimt-online.com" <torben@klimt-online.com> Date: Thu, July 24, 2014 3:33 am To: "App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org" <App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org> hi all, first some Background informations. here in Germany and parts of europe there is a new Network called Hamnet. it is a wifi based Network on the hambands from 2,4 ghz and 5 ghz. there is NO interconnection between the Internet and Hamnet. Some AllStarLink Nodes now are only avaliable inside the Hamnet, so there is no Registration in the allstarlink Network and the sysops can edit the /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodes cause there are no updates from the Internet. My node for example is available inside the Hamnet AND the Internet so the cronjob make an update of the /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodes How can i manually edit some Hamnet allstarlink nodes there ? greetings _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users To unsubscribe from this list please visit http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
