My OPINION.....yank the hard drive out,remove the IRLP board. Drop in new drive, configure as a Allstar node and dont look back.
I concur, although since Allstar supports the *Parallel Port* (IRLP board), the only thing required to switch over to Allstar is an -unmodified- CM108 fob. App_rpt will happily control an IRLP board for COS/PTT/AUX. 73 Kyle K0KN ----- Original Message ----- > From: Kirk Just Kirk

Pose that question to David Cameron VE7LTD......... Be sure to read the E-mail that comes back on a old computer That you don't mind losing to a fire....Cameron goes BEZERK.. I do see you still have quite a few IRLP nodes listed..... My OPINION.....yank the hard drive out,remove the IRLP board. Drop in new drive, configure as a Allstar node and dont look back. Unless you really NEED to be able to connect to IRLP node(s) you are much better off to do this. There is NO REASON to stay with IRLP.It was top dawg in it's day, but it's outdated now. A number of us ran IRLP on our Allstar nodes, only to be threatened by Dave Cameron that we would have our PGP keys yanked and forced off the system. I didn't wait for the "Bitch Slap" I promptly yanked IRLP nodes 3510 and 3520 (used to be 351 and 352 WAY BACK when) out of service,Picked the SSI-202 chips off the boards and threw the rest in the trash.
If you MUST be able to cross connect...simply place the two machines back to back Don't publish that you are doing it, chances are you can get away with it for a while...
