Mike,
I have to make a correction. I was kinda on auto pilot Analog_Bridge
is NOT used in a D-Star to ASL bridge.
Just to make sure you understand the data flow:
ircDDBGateway <---> DummyRepeater <---> asterisk
The modifications to DR make it talk directly to ASL.
I understand you have ircDDBGateway on a separate machine so the
actual address is going to be needed for DummyRepeater to talk to
ircDDBGateway
DummyRepeater talks directly to Asterisk This is where the
environment variables come into play. DummyRepeater uses the
environment variables to know how to communicate with Asterisk. If
DR and ASL are on the same machine, 127.0.0.1 is fine.
