[arm-allstar] Use allmon.ini to run a script

[David McGough]

Darrell,

Your script is (probably) running, but asterisk isn't working. That's 
because asterisk is being run as the user "http" ---the user associated 
with the apache webserver.

Try changing your dial_dmr.sh script to something like:

#######################################################
#!/bin/bash

export TERM=vt100
sudo /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt fun 50964 *350026"
#######################################################


Check out how the sudo command works, and the /etc/sudoers file.

Note that you can EASILY create some awful security holes with these 
commands and sudo, so be cautious, particularly if your node's apache 
server is visible on the Internet.
