[arm-allstar] not connecting to certain nodes - node table database file

Hi David,

Since you're able to connect to some nodes, and not others, I really 
doubt there is anything wrong with you RPi install.  When you performed 
the 16-May update and suddenly could connect to 2585 again, I believe that 
was simply a coincidence.

What I would suggest trying next is to go to the Asterisk CLI (admin menu 
option #11) and attempt to connect from the CLI, then include the output 
you see on the screen in a reply. So, try the following command to 
connect:

HamVoIP-dev*CLI> rpt fun 51046 *32585


Again, I am 99% certain the issue is with node 2585, not your node 51046.


73, David KB4FXC

I appreciate everyone's assistance here to help me solve this problem.

I can connect to 47620 with no issues.  Thats the node I would up using 
yesterday during John's (W2JLD) Raspberry Pi net as I could not connect 
to 2585.

On 16-May the way I fixed the problem was to do a HamVOIP software 
upgrade.  I did the software upgrade and once again could connect to 
2585.  My gut tells me something is getting confused or corrupted on my 
Pi that the upgrade process restores and fixes.

What do ya'all think?
