Hi all,

We managed to get asterisk working on one of our GS mesh nodes last night for testing using the great instructions found elsewhere on this forum. However, there was no mention of autostarting asterisk on the mesh node each time it reboots.

I have tried placing /etc/init.d/asterisk start in the rc.local and the /etc/rc.local file. Neither appears to autostart asterisk when the node reboots.

Any ideas where to start command should actually go....as we would liked to be able to use it without having to ssh into the node to start it each time the node is powered up.

Thanks in advance,

Ken KD6PGI

I am elated that the instructions worked!

All you'd need to do is run /etc/init.d/asterisk enable once in order to get it to start on it's own at bootup.

Wow....ok, thanks for the quick reply. I will give that a shot. So, does /etc/init.d/asterisks disable turn it back off at bootup?

That can happens sometimes as I frequent the forums.

Affirmative.

Thanks again.....and thanks for the excellent instructions. We are finally getting the rest of our ares team excited about mesh and what it can bring to the table for digital comms. Keep up the great work!
