Rolland,
You can disregard the server5 message. It is usually down and does not
matter. The echolink setup requires that 3 servers be assigned in the
config.
In the client do 'echolink dbdump'
You should see a bunch of nodes go by. You can also specifically look for
a node with:
echolink dbget
wa3dsp-27225-hub*CLI> echolink dbget c WA3DSP-L
147090|WA3DSP-L|67.165.29.63
If you are getting the node list and you can lookup your echolink call then
you should be good to go.
Be aware echolink has some problems. We have fixed many of them but not in
the code you are using. That's not to say what you have does not work. It
does but at times some things may be a little flaku and there are some
situations where echolink could lock up the system. The next update will
fix much of that.
Also the common echolink rules - you can only have one echolink running per
public IP unless you use a proxy and of course the port forwarding has to
be in place.
