I've followed your above instruction but have done so for a local onsite machine I have here so that I could use the newer asl. all has install correctly, asl is showing that my node is registering, the diff is that I'm not using it as a wireless node trying to use it as a full duplex repeater controller. The only issue I am having is that the server is not communicating with the RIM-Maaxtrac-RM interface I'm using. Not communicationg for rx or tx. Do you know if I somehow have to add asl to a user group or add my user name to a user of asl on Ubuntu like I have to do with Virtualbox and dialout? Any help would be great.... Thanks
I found out that I had a defective Rim-Maxtrax-RM interface. The only difference to install asl beta version for radioless node to a radio/repeater controller is to select either the simpleusb or usb means of control. All else works well...
I'm going to replicare this ("Do or do not; there is no try."-Yoda). Thank you. I assume you access this node either via DVSwitch (Android) or RepeaterPhone (iOS) but I'm wondering if there's an additional approach that would allow me a non-RF approach to full-time monitoring of my club's repeater? 73 de K3FZT / Steve
One of the easiest ways is with an IP phone. I most often connect to node 57945 via a Cisco SPA525G IP phone. You can configure the phone to do it directly (which I do for a node on my LAN) or through Hamshack Hotline, which is how I can plug into 57945. Article on it at https://www.randomwire.us/p/io-hamshack-hotline-connects-to-allstarlink
Having said that, I find DVSwitch to be a little strange at times. RepeaterPhone on my iPad Mini is fantastic.
Climbing my learning curve running a Windows 11 computer client w/Powershell connecting to the Debian 12 instance on Vultr. Still struggling to connect to the OpenSSH Server (yes, it's installed) on Windows 11. I can easily connect to the Vultr instance, but my obsessive screw loose won't let me move on. Perhaps another day I'll just lock my brain into Vultr. Thanks for the follow, Tom, though I'm more a commentator than author. 73 de K3FZT/Steve
Thank you, Tom. I was on that site several times, but not that specific page. The first "Quick Guide" worked perfectly. I'd done almost all of that before, but I'd never thought of starting terminal/powershell/CMD prompt as "Administrator", i.e., ROOT! /Steve
Sounds interesting. I always enjoy learning more. On my Debian and Windows machines, I run Tailscale. Makes connections between them easy and pretty secure.
Thanks for highlighting AllScan. That’s the first I’ve seen that tool mentioned and installed it right away. It gives some nice additional insight into the state of connected nodes.
AllScan filled a gap for me. I could use Supermon to connect and disconnect from other nodes, but AllScan let me save a list of favorites and see if there is activity on them. I'm glad you found it!

I wish I had the knowledge to help you. The closest I've come to the scenario describe is in my Easy Peasy RF AllStar Node article at https://www.randomwire.us/p/easy-peasy-rf-allstar-node
In that build, I used a RIM-Alinco interface and the article includes some of the settings I used. I hope that information helps!

A defective interface seems a bit startling! Glad you got it sorted!
I'll check that out and see what I can do, will give you feed back once I know something...
Thanks

I found this through a web search, don't know if it provides value to your work to use SSH on Win11! https://www.ionos.com/digitalguide/server/configuration/windows-11-ssh/
