Re: g2_link and monlink Terry M. Stader All Messages By This Member #189 Here is an idea on this issue. Created a bash script that checks the size of a specified file. If the file size is not zero, it stops a specified service. If the file size is zero, it checks the status of the service, and if the service is stopped, it starts the service. The script also logs actions to a log file. ?

g2_link and monlink Terry M. Stader All Messages By This Member #188 Here is a challenge… If g2_link is running with dplus, we want to make sure that a repeater module is not connected to both an REFxxxy reflector at the same time as connected to XRFxxxy. There is a blocking mechanism in place to keep an RF user from connecting to REFxxx or XRFxxx if there is an existing connection to either already in place. But, we noticed in the past that that blocking mechanism is ignored when a command line connection request is made, i.e., monlink will restore an REFxxxy connection when an XRFxxxy connection is already in place. Monlink does not know to check the RPT_STATUS.txt to see if it is empty. Maybe the easiest way is to suspend monlink while g2_link has an active connection… RPT_STATUS.txt is not zero/0? That might be OK for a single repeater module system… but maybe a multiple module system has a dplus reflector on one module and an XRF/XLX/DCS on the other? Maybe abandon monlink and use a bash script and cron jobs to do what monlink did for dplus? Any thoughts?

Bah - no sweat. ?I'm happy to see folks contributing!

From what I can see, admins cannot modify (easily) the DPlus
dashboard. ?No so much once I found $G2_LINK/g2_link/g2_lh.tpl

Since I can't edit the DPlus page, I will edit the g2_link page with
some instructions for "both sides" (especially "remember to unlink on
both sides!").

I use scripts to start up connects and disconnect cron for the various nets.

For example:

[root@wb1gof my_scripts]# cat xrf221a-c.sh

#!/bin/bash

# script to automatically connect

# C port to XRF221A using the g2_link tool

# disconnect first

/usr/bin/nc -u -w 1 10.0.0.2 30003 <<EOF

um C

EOF

sleep 3

# disconnect dplus

echo "?????? U" >/dstar/tmp/link-c

sleep 3

# first connect with netcat to port

# then connect to XRF221A

/usr/bin/nc -u -w 1 10.0.0.2 30003 <<EOF

lm CXRF221A

EOF

exit 0

补苍诲…

[root@wb1gof my_scripts]# cat ref069c-c-start.sh

#!/bin/bash

# script to connect

# B port to REF069C using dplus

# disconnect any g2_link connection first

/usr/bin/nc -u -w 1 10.0.0.2 30003 <<EOF

um C

#EOF

#sleep 3

# disconnect any dplus connection

echo "?????? U" >/dstar/tmp/link-c

#sleep 3

# query connection status

echo "?????? I" >/dstar/tmp/link-c

sleep 5

# connect to REF069C

echo "REF069CL" >/dstar/tmp/link-c

>>EOF

exit 0

YMMV.

# personalize the cron.d dashboard file

# make sure to change output location to /var/www/html/

#/root/g2_link/g2_lh -m "B" -o /var/www/html/fs.html -b "$GW_CALL D-STAR" -r -t /root/g2_link/g2_lh.tpl $GW_CALL

# NOTE: Non-standard gateway IP g2_lh -? reveals option
