Re: Building up a network
beni@...
Yes, I edited the DMR_Hosts.txt file adding custom DMR Host, so basically using MMDVMHost without DMRGateway in the middle.
Well, HBLink is really toxic, lol. 2am in here and I cannot leave it for today. Now will try to learn and use the routing/bridging options so I can use those too.

Re: Building up a network

Steve, yes, definitely a DMRGateway problem!
Tried the method I said; the one involving directly editing the PiStar's DMR_Hosts.txt file and now it works and and I can see traffic passing through.

You can change from DEBUG to INFO Debug does not really tell you

Re: Building up a network
beni@...
Steve, thanks. In the meantime I would try another approach. As I don't really need the DMRGateway, I will try to directly edit PiStar's DMR_Hosts.txt file and then connect "normally" as I would connect to a DMR Master Server.

Re: Building up a network
I do not see them logged in. One hint I can give you is that hblink
by itself does not log traffic. The best way to do that is to run
hb_bridge_all.

Ben,

I have 2 hotspots logged into your VPS. I'm connecting directly from MMDVMHost to HBlink, no DMRGateway. I can see the traffic passing from one HS to the other. I think you need to look closely at your DMRGateway configuration. Someone on the dvswitch list may be able to help. 73, Steve N4IRS

I think I will need to make my own "/usr/local/etc/DMRIds.dat" if that's a hint, right?

Re: Building up a network
Check the MMDVMHost log on all connected nodes for hints.

Re: Building up a network
Just running hblink with repeat=true all connected MMDVMs should
hear each other. You should also be able to run bridge_all.py

Steve,

These is a custom ports firewall file in /root you can alter to allow custom ports, you need to edit the file, do an update (which incorporates the customs), and a restart. If you just mod it directly then it stops PiStar doing any further updates, which is a bit annoying, but I understand where Andy is coming from with regards to being secure and easier to support. 73, Peter Sent from Outlook From: main@DVSwitch.groups.io <main@DVSwitch.groups.io> on behalf of Steve N4IRS <szingman@...>

Good Work Steve, it would have taken me a while to remember Pi-Star drops outbound connections. For the Pi-Star firewall rules, you can edit it them using the CLI - http://wiki.pistar.uk/Adding_custom_firewall_rules_to_Pi-Star

(not really) In looking at /usr/local/sbin/pistar-firewall I see that outbound UDP ports 62031 and 55555 are allowed. If you are using Pi-Star I suggest you use you use port 55555 since editing the firewall script will be overwritten by a update from Pi-Star. 73, Steve N4IRS
