Darrell, Remember the AllStar folks that went nuts claiming HamVoip branch was rouge and doing their own thing by not following the rules not too long ago?

From what I can tell it’s the same accusers now going rogue and creating their own rules / network and trying to pull folks along.

Freedom to choose is a good thing. The issue is, are the two systems able to interconnect? An Allstar node is an Allstar node, all day long... isn't it? On Tue, Feb 9, 2021, 07:53 Dan Srebnick via App_rpt-users < app_rpt-users@lists.keekles.org> wrote:

As far as going rogue, anyone can start their own network that supports IAX routing for amateur radio and which can be used by the app_rpt software. No problem there. Do we need another? Two networks might be good for redundancy.

In the DMR world, we have DMR MARC, Brandmeister, TGIF, DMR+ and XLX. I don’t see folks getting too upset about that.

Why don’t we all just have one repeater in our towns and cities. One is enough, right?

Why do we have so many HF bands? We could just all be on 10 meters between 28.3 and 28.5 MHz to be fair to the Technician licensees.

Can we just put a stop to the moaning and groaning here? Be happy you have a choice. You are free to connect where you choose.

The issue is, are the two systems able to interconnect? Currently, not as far as I know.  But there is at least one bridge between the two.  My AllStar node 27154 is permanently bridged to PttLink node 27154 (I'm using USRP for the bridge), so any traffic on one will be heard on the other and vice versa.

Dan Srebnick, You are totally right Hamvoip do not follow the law and don't post their source. On the other side, PttLink does not do a lot better, they kept the database of users into the server that allstarlink decided to drop (which is totally their rights to do). PttLink is holding a block of IP addresses that belong to ASL. And even the pttlink.org domain name was given to ASL by the heirs of Jim. And they plainly lied about what was happening and on how the board of directors broked the network and bla bla bla. What I find fun to see is that Brian still has 3 nodes reporting to ASL.

Darrell, You can visit the PTTLink portal at: https://www.pttlink.org Your user data would have been scrubbed from the database if you didn't login before 3 February. If that is the case then you will need to submit a new user request, and once validated submit a ticket to helpdesk@pttlink.org requesting what node numbers you have/had assigned on AllStarLink that you'd like to have restored.  A verification will be made and if successful, the node numbers will be assigned to your account for configuration and use.  The helpdesk will reply back with the status of your request. Once the nodes are restored, you will need to update your /etc/asterisk/iax.conf file and edit the register lines to point to register.pttink.org instead of register.allstarlink.org. Also, in your /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf file, you will need to update the statspost_url to: statpost_url=http://stats.pttlink.org/uhandler.php Then you will be able to see your nodes on http://stats.pttlink.org An easier way to do a mass update of all the  files that you will need to change is by running the following commands.  They will update everything from allstarlink.org to pttlink.org.  You will need to login to each of your nodes and run these commands one-by-one to make the change. sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /usr/local/bin/rc.updatenodelist sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /usr/local/bin/NodeNameUpdate.sh sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /usr/local/bin/NodeUpdate.sh sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /etc/asterisk/iax.conf sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf sudo service asterisk restart And optionally reboot: sudo reboot If you run into any issues feel free to post them here or send a request to the helpdesk at helpdesk@pttlink.org.

What is sed? Ask the man..... man sed What is man you ask...... Well once again, ask the man man man sed stands for ‘Stream EDitor’. The MANual page should tell you everything you need to know. Eric Af6ep Sent using SMTP.

https://www.pttlink.org

Your user data would have been scrubbed from the database if you didn't login before 3 February.

If that is the case then you will need to submit a new user request, and once validated submit a ticket to helpdesk@pttlink.org requesting what node numbers you have/had assigned on AllStarLink that you'd like to have restored.

A verification will be made and if successful, the node numbers will be assigned to your account for configuration and use. The helpdesk will reply back with the status of your request.

Once the nodes are restored, you will need to update your /etc/asterisk/iax.conf file and edit the register lines to point to register.pttink.org instead of register.allstarlink.org.

Also, in your /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf file, you will need to update the statspost_url to:

statpost_url=http://stats.pttlink.org/uhandler.php

Then you will be able to see your nodes on http://stats.pttlink.org

An easier way to do a mass update of all the files that you will need to change is by running the following commands. They will update everything from allstarlink.org to pttlink.org.

You will need to login to each of your nodes and run these commands one-by-one to make the change.

sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /usr/local/bin/rc.updatenodelist

sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /usr/local/bin/NodeNameUpdate.sh

sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /usr/local/bin/NodeUpdate.sh

sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf

sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /etc/asterisk/iax.conf

sudo sed -i 's/allstarlink.org/pttlink.org/g' /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf

sudo service asterisk restart

And optionally reboot: sudo reboot

If you run into any issues feel free to post them here or send a request to the helpdesk at helpdesk@pttlink.org.

Thank you
