chan_irlp experimental reflector calling added

1. Download the latest chan_irlp from viewvc:

http://qrvc.com/viewvc/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk/asterisk/channels/chan_irlp.c?root=svn&view=log

Compile and install

2. You will also need to update and add 2 script files in
/home/irlp/scripts:

update: update
add: experimental_call

A tarball with these latest scripts can be fetched from viewvc:

http://qrvc.com/viewvc/projects/allstar/acid/trunk/irlp-centos-dist.tgz?root=svn&view=log

Extract the tarball into a temporary directory (not /home/irlp !), then
copy the two scripts over to /home/irlp/scripts

Ramesh,

Yes, experimental reflectors can be called with the latest version of
chan_irlp.

Hi Jim;

Hope you are well. I have just downloaded v0.179 of app_rpt and
discovered that there is a recent update to the chan_irlp driver :slight_smile:

I wonder if this fixes the issues that I inquired about last week (i.e.,
updating the exp-x-reference flat file and so on).

Looking forward to your confirmation.

Regards,

Ramesh.

Hi Jim;

A couple of local Asterisk / app_rpt guys have asked me to help them
get their app_rpt / chan_irlp nodes updated so that they can call EXP
(IRLP) reflectors.

I see that the latest published version of chan_irlp is v0.21. The
code points to a flat file of exp nodes - i.e.,

(fp = fopen("/var/lib/asterisk/exp-x-reference","r");

My only question is how is the exp-x-reference file generated;
obviously this is something that Dave C' pushes out, but how is it
kept up to date? - for example on my system (Allstar # 2182), which
you worked on some time ago, I notice that the file seems to be stale
- i.e., the last entry is exp0034, but Dave has just issued exp0041 to
someone.... so hence my question how is the file updated?

Thanks!

Ramesh.
