[arm-allstar] Hamvoip Update 1.6.2-03

Wed Apr 22 14:21:13 EDT 2020

Doug,

I've been emailing with David about it. It's a wired connection and IP is good and shows up on network. Actually it connects with my other nodes fine also.

I just can't communicate locally on the network anymore. The IP is correct in setup and SSH port is good too. I can communicate with Putty and Supermon to my other nodes fine.

I just sent David the node number that is 500290. It's connected to other nodes.

The only way locally is the HDMI and keyboard. No SSH or HTTP.

It's always something. ☹

Joe,

 ssh and Supermon are two different communications ports so one would not have anything to do with the other. Can you ping the IP address of this server on your LAN? Is this a static or DHCP server?  Is it wired or wireless?  If you have HDMI access you can try pinging out. Also do ifconfig at the Linux prompt and see what your network settings are. If you are using DHCP wired and wireless will have different IP addresses.
