[arm-allstar] Using Putty Problems at the Start

[Eric Harrison]

Jeffery, I have not built any new allstar nodes recently but if i remember correctly all stock installsdefault to SSH port 22. I would plug an HDMI monitor and keyboard  into you rpi4 to confirm this in /etc/ssh. But after a install I always change this port for security reasons. Hope this helps.

 Okay, this shouldn’t be that difficult, even for an OM that’s not computer savvy.  Did a clean write onto the SD card.  Checksum okay. Installed into Pi4.  Turn on and blinks dit-dit-dit-dah…The letter V I believe.  I try Putty and know that the ethernet IP connected to the Pi is .106 because I have another node (one of Mark’s nano-nodes).  Use port 222.  Keep getting connection timed out.  So I am stuck at the easy part…Jeez, what am I doing wrong.  I tried typing the IP into the Browser with no luck in getting a page that says TEST.  

The same cable is now back connected to my other node and working just fine, listening to the Insomniac Net.  Now, if I can only get to configure the new Pi4.  Any Ideas?

Regards,

Jeffrey
