Iaxrpt won't connect to ASL

Ahhh…
One of the usual suspects. Thanks for the follow up for the benefit of others.

BTW…
the iax password is preformed by asterisk and we do use a older version of asteisk that will still support app_rpt

So, yes, it is a bit vintage. If it concerns you for security, make it longer.
and/or make sure you are running your firewall & fail2ban.
