Remote Admin on 4656

Phil Zocco
 

Greetings,

 

I am trying to get the Remote Admin script to run on my node 4656.

 

This node runs with a VPN connection.

 

I ran the install as user root and while it was installing, I got this:

 

 

- Patching apache conf to run as user repeater ....

patching file /etc/apache2/envvars

patch: **** Can't open patch file /tmp/default.debian.patch : No such file or directory

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/var/www/html/’: File exists

 

 

Just wondering what may be happening or not happening.

 

Using the IRLP.Net/redirect page will not allow me to access the node.

 

Any ideas?

 

TIA and 73,

 

Phil N1BOW

Hello all,
 Got on echolink and contacted an administrator.  One of three that replied. Issue addressed and taken care of. One of the coolest (excuse old terms) reflectors on the net.

Hello All,
 Recently 8413 was was blocked off the 9050 reflector .
How long does it take to get the e_mail so I can correct. E_mail is current in Data base. Just asking. 
Thanks,

‘pico /home/irlp/custom/environment’ and make the change there.

Re: Can only connect to experimental reflectors

Jon Jacox
 

Interesting! I assumed that my node was choking on the reception but it makes sense that I was transmitting broken data and heard it echoed back. Never thought of that. 

This afternoon I moved my phone/hotspot and did a speed test through the node. All looked good and what do you know, I can connect to everything! Echo test is perfect. So maybe you were right and I had poor upload bandwidth. Thanks for everyone's input and now I know how the experimental reflectors work. 

Here's a screenshot of the speed test. DL seems a little low for 5G but the UL was good. Thanks again.

Re: Can only connect to experimental reflectors

That sounds like your node is starved for bandwidth. It could be in either direction though. If the echo reflector replies with a crappy transmission, it could be because the downstream path is poor, but it could also be because that is what it heard, and is ”echo-ing” it back to you.

Very odd. Brought the system up this morning and I from the node (via SSH) I could still ping and connect to the internet (I used w3m to connect to a few sites).

I think my node itself isn't happy about something. I tried echo 9999 and it took many seconds to connect. When the audio came back, my message was extremely broken up by PTT toggling off & on with a second or more between short audio clips and the PTT kerchunking.

I've disabled the web UI stuff in the features file and for kicks I also disabled Apache. Still no go. Unfortunately I can't leave the system up all day but I will resume experimenting this evening (pacific time). Whatever is happening is new to using the hotspot as it's fine at home.

Re: Can only connect to experimental reflectors

I took the system down overnight but I will try again. Now I understand why I could connect to the experimental nodes. I don't know if audio was returned as I didn't make any contact with anyone.

I SSH'd into the node and could ping various domains (I was checking DNS lookup) but I will try a more thorough test for internet connectivity later on.

I'll try again and let you all know. Thanks! 

PS I am using a new phone with a new service provider (Telus) so that's part of the issue.

Re: DTMF node status

Dave K9DC
 

There is nothing that come with standard IRLP. But there are a couple of scripts, contributed by users, right here in groups.io <http://groups.io/>, that seem to provide what you are looking for.

Check out https://irlp.groups.io/g/IRLP/files/Scripts%20for%20IRLP%20Nodes/Check%20IRLP.

Hi All,

Apologies if this has already been discussed somewhere.

I’m attempting to assist in resolving an issue for a local club node in VK, and I simply cannot recall where to find this.

In previous revisions of the node file set, there was a script that read out the node status when DTMF character ‘0’ was decoded.
I’ve re-added the script snippet to the custom-decode file, so ‘0’ actually does something, but for the life of me I don’t recall which script to point it at, & nothing in the ~/scripts/ directory appears to fit the bill.
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Thank you

Hi Simon,

Have a look at ftp.irlp.net/pub/scripts

Jon,  Are you actually receiving packets from the experimental reflectors?

Hi, 

I am traveling with my portable node 1201 connected to my cellular hotspot. For some reason I CANNOT connect to any regular nodes or reflectors. I get a timeout error or a message that the node is not responding. However, experimental reflectors connect immediately. 

I usually have the node connected to my home wifi through a GL.iNet travel router and there are no issues. I took the router out of the equation since it's not really needed anyway. I just re-ran the troubleshooting script and everything passed so I have no idea what's going on. 

Why can't I connect to anything except experimental reflectors and why do those work? What's different about them?

Jon. there are several problems

Attempting a call from 6163 in Queensland..
/home/irlp$ decode 1201
Valid IP = 44.127.48.249 obtained from server
KEYID=stn1201
Key exists in the keyring
The nodes IP is determined to be 44.127.48.249
Trying 44.127.48.249, port 15425...
=>> I receive an audio report: the connection cannot be made.
Neither can I do a telnet to irlp 1201?
Have you run a test on the echo reflector 9999.
Your Tx audio should be faithfully returned.

Experimental reflectors have no authentication. They are just connect to whatever IP address is set. I suspect that you're no does not actually have a proper internet connection. Your note will also connect to the echo reflector without a proper connection.

You need to check and verify that the note is actually connected to a network connection.
