I had similar issues during boot when I started using Dial on my RPi. I found that Asterisk was starting too quickly before other needed processes had initialized. By putting a "sleep 30" statement in the asterisk start RC script, all issues were solved, even the failure to register Echolink. It appeared that the network hadn't fully initialized before Asterisk was trying to do DNS lookups. In my case, I'm using DHCP on the RPi and the home router forces the same address to it each time. 73, Jim, KY2D, node 2396 -----Original Message----- From: app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org [mailto:app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org] On Behalf Of Mark Johnston Sent: Sunday, January 31, 2016 2:55 AM To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: [App_rpt-users] DNS issues with Dial /var/log/asterisk/messages: [Jan 30 23:45:03] NOTICE[675] dnsmgr.c: Managed DNS entries will be refreshed every 300 seconds.
