Jim is still in the hospital. He was well enough to want me to help him bring up the new server over the phone (typical Jim). We were able to reconfigure the new server so that http://allstarlink.org at least responds to web requests. There are issues with registration and/or the database on the server, so it is not operational yet. There is a chance that the rest of the configuration will have to wait until Jim is out of the hospital, and recuperated enough to resolve the database issues. You can go to the site and look around, but I don't advise logging in and changing anything. Changes should not be made as there is a small chance the database may need to be completely rebuilt, and we need to keep modifications at bay till everything is working. I or Jim will send a message to the list when it is OK to make changes. Steve WA6ZFT
Just curious, without the registration server, will we not be able to connect to other nodes? Next time you speak to Jim, please pass along my wishes for a speedy recovery! Jim, K6JWN On Aug 13, 2010, at 10:36 PM, Stephen Rodgers wrote:

The registration server updates the master node list when a nodes IP address changes. As long as node's IP addresses stay the same during the transition, the node will be able connect to other nodes and receive connections from other nodes. The problem is most users have dynamic IP's which change regularly. Without the registration server to keep the list updated, these users will be unable to connect to other nodes or receive connections from other nodes once their IP address changes. Everyone now is depending on a local copy of a list of nodes and IP addresses which was last updated around 3:45PM PST on 8/13. Steve WA6ZFT
