This should work in all cases but if you want to use your provider or some other DNS you can point it to there or use one or the other as secondary. I have heard of possible DNS problems when using Mobile nodes on cell networks. You can usually use 8.8.8.8 as your DNS in those cases.<br id="ecxFontBreak"><br>Pointing DNS to your router (the same address as your default gateway) should also work as it is given DNS information form your provider.<br></font><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">From: dan@ozment.net<br>To: arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>CC: doug@crompton.com<br>Subject: RE: [arm-allstar] Trouble Registering New Node<br>Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2016 11:40:44 -0400<br><br><style><!--

Just got it to register. I did not have the port set to 4568 in the general section of iax.conf. Changed that and hoped for the best. But, no luck. So, I started digging deeper and, by trying to “ping register.allstarlink.org” found that DNS resolution wasn’t working. For some reason /etc/resolv.conf had my nameserver set to 192.168.1.1 (which isn’t valid on my network). I checked resolv.conf on the working node and set the second node up the same:</span></a></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">[root@raspi-allstar2 etc]# cat resolv.conf</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"># Generated by resolvconf</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">#domain lan</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">nameserver 127.0.0.1</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">With that I was able to resolve register.allstarlink.org, but it still wasn’t registering. </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">Finally, I restarted the router.

First, bindport wasn’t set correctly in iax2.conf. I think I entered the port when I last ran the configuration utility. Is it possible that this was set incorrectly by firsttime.sh? Second problem was DNS resolution. Any idea how resolv.conf could have been set up for the wrong network? Is it using default values, or is the network script writing to the file? </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">It could be that I set it up on my test network (which is 192.168.1.0) and then moved it over. But, I thought I rebuilt it when I moved it to my other network.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">Good news is it’s working! Going to grab lunch now and will explore more with it later. </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;">Again, thanks for the tips!</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;"> </span></p></div></div> </div></div> </div></body>
