[Arm-allstar-irlp] IRLP Echolink Port issue on new hamviop image

[Ian (VK2HK)]

Thank you David, you are correct, it was my password, different passwords for each one and I had them transposed on each Pi, at least I can now continue to see what else is going wrong with the rest of the port forwarding issues, still having problems with the IRLP side, but I will now go back over each setting and make sure I have not made a similar error in those config files.
I think I had spent to much time looking and could not see what was in front of me.

Now the reason for this is that the Centos server is getting old and I’m seeing some issues on the old hard drive (yes full backup has been done) I’m also trying to get the other EchoIRLP Pi onto a hamvoip system.
