[arm-allstar] problem running bash script

[Doug Crompton]

Not knowing what these scripts do I would not be able to tell you why they
don't run. You are aware that we have playnews which we support and works
well. The howto is at hamvoip.org in the howto section. This is
programmable to play at a specified time. Usually you would not play a 20+
minute news file without breaks and at a specific time with pre warnings.
If ou download the playnews tarball it should be untarred in the
/etc/asterisk/lkocal directory.  The /usr/local/sbin directory is for
hamvoip supplied scripts.
