[arm-allstar] astdb.txt daily build question

 Thanks Doug,

I have a node running 0.325 that I would like to replace with latest
HamVoip.  I have all components working with the exception of Node List
updating.

HamVoIP retrieves its node list accessing AllStar db URL and I am trying to
identify this URL in the code of my working NODE so I can replace  "
https://allstarlink.org/cgi-bin/allmondb.pl" with "<Other Network details>"

End game is so my list contains Private Nodes and the <Other Networks
nodes> and not AllStar Nodes.  Want to ensure that my node does not allow
folks to connect Non-HAM nodes with HAM nodes.

Hope this helps clarify the ask and why I am asking.

-Brad
