OK I figured out the not getting provisioned ordeal.. Since I was out of sync on IAX port setting.. oddly (to me) I needed to be IAX registered to register.allstarlink.org (*duh*), in order for the provisiong pushes to reach me. I had somehow thought all along this whole thing was all done via HTTP on port 80. Didn't realize there was custom integration with IAX (COOL!). So there is a realtime push.. not a wait until app_rpt 'checks in' via HTTP to stats.allstarlink.org. Um.. that's cool! how'ya doing that?? I mean with IAX & all? Checking some kinda status bit in the IAX reg packets that flags a "hey go get yer updates" routine? :-) Steve

Might be just me at this point but I've still not been able to get a config (IAX2 port or timezone) change to take today via the portal.

I of course have great Internet connectivity working DNS (flushed again just now)..

And can do everything normally, just not been able to play with the provisioning server.

I'll try a few manual http tests when I get back from dinner.

Without much of a clue... I'm guessing there's some kind of flag in the stat server response telling the systems they have new provisioning data to grab.. As I can tell there's no actual connection state maintained with allstar. I'm guessing it's done by app_rpt at the check-in interval.

the swine DNS server provided by the hosting place where my server lives seems to have taken a poop.

I changed what DNS servers it uses and it seems to be feeling much better-er now.

All weekend ans still now I seem to have got myself outta sync where my test system (node 27298) is no longer updating if make & push changes from the allstar provisioning portal.. I'm just trying to change the IAX port.. Seemed to work fine last week when I was trying it out.

I'm using a very simple short password with only loercase letters & numbers as I had run into password complexity issues before.. wherer it worked fine for logging into the web portal but would not provision the box.

Thanks.. if you have any sanity checks to suggest I'll give 'em a try!
