[arm-allstar] Cron Job

[Pierre Martel]

The cron tab thing is a nice fix, but it is not a real solution.

I am in the same situation as the OP.

never had a stable Echolink database.

I would think thst it would be possible to trigger a full database dowbload
in ome way when there is 2 unautorized connection from the same Ip or node
number in a 90 second span?

or a fix full reload every 4 hours? this would help a lot.

I have 2 node connected all the time and astres.sh redo the connection and
Alison start announcing all those message every time. And I have user on
the repeater all night long.
