[arm-allstar] V1.5 question

[Lawrence Roney]

On my repeater I have an admin function defined in rpt.conf that calls a shell script that reads the public IP over the air.

In rpt.conf I have a line:
=====================================
906=cmd,/usr/local/sbin/saypublicip.sh 44045    ; Say Public IP to radio
=====================================


/usr/local/sbin/saypublicip.sh contains:
====================================
#!/bin/bash
if [ -z "$1" ]
  then
    echo "No node number supplied - saypublicip.sh <node> "
    exit 1
fi

ip=`dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com 2>&1`

cat /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/letters/i.gsm /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/letters/p.gsm /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/address.gsm > /tmp/ip.gsm

asterisk -rx "rpt localplay $1 /tmp/ip"
sleep 1
/usr/local/sbin//speaktext.sh $ip $1

rm /tmp/ip.gsm
====================================

Thanks,
Lawrence

Group,
I'm an experienced IRLP node owner but I'm pretty new to Allstar. I've been waiting for v1.5 before deploying my node to a far away site, so I could take advantage of the ability to apply updates rather than flashing a whole new card.

Anyway, the question I have is, at the site I plan on deploying to, I have a DSL connection where the modem is simply a bridge and I am not using a router because I can get a public IP address for each device plugged into the switch. These are DHCP assigned and will change on occasion. Is there a way I can remotely see what the IP address is for my Allstar node? IRLP has it's own DNS service similar to DynDNS so it's a simple matter, but I wasn't sure if there was something similar for Allstar. If I were smart enough I could maybe have the Pi e-mail me the current IP address each time it changes, but I haven't explored that yet.

Thanks,
Justin
