[arm-allstar] need some help with LAN node linking

Thank you, Doug! Problem solved.
My problem was: I had a fundamental misunderstanding that if I connected
the private nodes in one direction only, node "B" wouldn't need to have
node "A" in it's phonebook.
As soon as I defined node "A" in node "B"'s directory and restarted
asterisk, I was able to connect node A to node B.
I know have a working fully frequency-agile 10Meter/6Meter/2Meter Motorola
Syntor X remote base built on two BBBs. Thank you again, Doug, and everyone
that's been involved with this!
