27/03/2016 - v2.5 YO2LOJ reports 2 warnings with regards to system.c and
|
|
the date/time stamp function. While I do not get one, I also do not get
|
|
one with his supplied patch... so I included it. The patch affects the
|
|
differences between 32 and 64 bit OS timestamps. Now the OS bit
|
|
shouldn't matter. Thanks Marius! (That's why we have ya on the team)
|
|
|
|
Ported the calibrate tool from F1OAT to the URONode suite. I could have
|
|
rewritten the whole thing from scratch but why the need to reinvent the
|
|
wheel? There was some recoding I had to do so that it'd compile under
|
|
URONode but that was somewhat minor. Usage is the same:
|
|
calibrate -t [ms] interface.
|
|
This port is similar in theory to what I did with Craig Small's axdigi package.
|
|
|
|
Cleaned up routines in Makefile. I'll probably have several and
|
|
hopefully they will go unnoticed. One critical thing I did notice and
|
|
I'm surprised no one reported this was if flexnet wasn't selected, and
|
|
one ran a "make install" or "make upgrade" - it would exit as soon as it
|
|
tried to install a non-existant binary (FlexD). This left the axdigi
|
|
module to go un-installed/upgraded. This is a very important module to
|
|
install as it allows for interface to multi-interface digipeating.
|
|
Anyway, I got off my butt and fixed this amongst other things.
|
|
|
|
Fixed the way the system handled parsing of the info file that carried
|
|
the stats for Memory and Swap usage: /proc/meminfo. In some cases, the
|
|
node couldn't properly parse the swap statistics in the "Status"
|
|
command. Now, regardless of which kernel is being used, the proper stats
|
|
will be parsed and the percentage arithmetic will be properly applied to
|
|
show final percentage used. An example of the output:
|
|
|
|
Memory: Available Used Free perc. Used
|
|
------------------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
|
|
Physical: 4048024 kB 3206552 kB 841472 kB 79 %
|
|
Swap: 1881084 kB 0 kB 1881084 kB 0 %
|
|
|
|
I really don't know why this was such a difficult thing for me to fix
|
|
but I got it after months of pondering. This fixes a known non-critial
|
|
bug :D After fixing this bug however I created another one that would
|
|
cause a divide-by-zero segfault. Someone asked me to configure a box
|
|
remotely for them and they didn't add a swap partition at all! Now if
|
|
there's none or it's simply not activated, the node's 'STatus' report
|
|
will reflect such. Thanks to the NY EOC folks for creating this error so
|
|
I could find this bug before relase xD
|
|
|
|
Fixing texts in gateway.c and mheard.c where it still referenced the
|
|
word "port(s)" instead of "interface(s)" as it should. Also cleaned up
|
|
some minor error reporting. Also made some changes in how some aborts
|
|
are displayed, and also invalid callsign error reporting. For example,
|
|
an aborted connect will now show:
|
|
c n1uro-3
|
|
UNIVLE:N1URO-5} link setup (ax2)...
|
|
|
|
UNIVLE:N1URO-5} Connection aborted.
|
|
The same as with an aborted telnet session.
|
|
|
|
Pings now will show: ping www.comcast.com
|
|
ICMP Echo request sent to: 68.87.29.59
|
|
|
|
UNIVLE:N1URO-5} Ping aborted.
|
|
|
|
and a connect attempt that doesn't exist in any tables or links:
|
|
c g4apl
|
|
UNIVLE:N1URO-5} G4APL not found, please retry your entry.
|
|
I'm sure I'll figure out some more as time goes on. Always a little something
|
|
to do :)
|
|
|
|
One thing I noticed was an error in the Ping routine. The "Maximum size"
|
|
of a ping was preset to 248 bytes. On an ax25 link, this doesn't even
|
|
leave room for the IP headers, nevermind the ax25 headers! In thinking
|
|
this over, and not knowing if the IP path would be over vanilla ax25 OR
|
|
perhaps via NetRom, I decided to make the Maximum content per ping at
|
|
128 bytes. This should also be just large enough to allow ALL ascii
|
|
characters a chance to be included in 1 ping frame. Ex:
|
|
|
|
n1uro-15@n1uro.ampr.org:/uronode$ ping k1yon 129
|
|
Maximum size is 128
|
|
n1uro-15@n1uro.ampr.org:/uronode$ ping k1yon 128
|
|
ICMP Echo request sent to: 44.88.4.1
|
|
ICMP Echo reply received from: 44.88.4.1
|
|
Ping completed in: 151ms (ttl=63)
|
|
n1uro-15@n1uro.ampr.org:/uronode$
|
|
|
|
While at it, I made changes to the online help file for ping and to
|
|
uronode.8 man page.
|
|
|
|
Also I noticed while working on a new site for EastNet, I somehow omitted an
|
|
install line in the Makefile for flexd.8. This not only is fixed but I also
|
|
expanded a bit on the limited text that was inside.
|
|
|
|
Cleaned up a text display bug in the Status report. Swap: was not right
|
|
column justified with the rest of the memory stats. This was handled in
|
|
command.c
|
|
|
|
Added a routine in configure to check for "make" as I've seen new
|
|
installs where make is not installed but gcc is. Needless to say you
|
|
can't "make" a binary if "make" does not exist ;->
|
|
|
|
Also added a notification in flexd where when started to inform you that
|
|
the poll cycle has started. You may see it connect to test the existance
|
|
of an ax25 socket for the remote end when you first start flexd. This
|
|
starts the timer for your poll sequence in flexd.conf.
|
|
|
|
While I was at it (and with a decent nudge from Tomasz SP2L) I did some
|
|
further digging and found (with the aid of Thomas DL9SAU) that the
|
|
getsockopt routine itself was showing failure because the socket wasn't
|
|
initially established prior to the polling loop. In adjusting it's
|
|
settings this appears to help relieve the initial error getsockopt() was
|
|
showing upon start of flexd. Now flexd should login to the remote
|
|
immediately upon start and pull down the desti table of the remote node.
|
|
Thanks Thomas and Tomasz :)
|
|
|
|
In digging through the flexd source some more, and enjoying the fact
|
|
that the configs can be changed "on the fly" without having to restart
|
|
the system in most cases, or disrupt activity that's in session on or
|
|
through the node, I added a call to update the destinations upon a
|
|
"killall -HUP flexd". This allows the node sysop to change the flex-gate
|
|
they wish to poll without having to stop and restart flexd, and grab an
|
|
immediate destinations list. Remember to do the following:
|
|
- add the route in uronode.routes
|
|
- change the flex gateway in flexd.conf
|
|
- killall -HUP flexd
|
|
... and your new config and destination will instantly be live. Also, you can
|
|
-HUP your flexd to force an update as well.
|
|
|
|
Fixed a non-critical bug in axdigi where killing the daemon would NOT
|
|
clear the pidfile in /var/run. Always a stale pidfile was left over, and
|
|
as a quick fix I had the daemon delete the pidfile through a system call upon
|
|
start. A hack but worked. NOW, the daemon will remove the pidfile upon
|
|
exit as it should.
|
|
|
|
Wrote a set of SystemD files since xinetd/inet will soon be eliminated in
|
|
favor of SystemD. I've tested the files on both a Pi running Raspbian
|
|
wheezy and on my Fedora testbed. Important Note:
|
|
IF you spawn your incoming telnet connects with SystemD, it's very possible
|
|
that SystemD *will* convert your incoming IPv4 to internal IPv6 sockets.
|
|
You may handle this by forcing IPv4 in your SystemD uronode.socket file.
|
|
While as of this version URONode will handle *incoming* IPv6, I haven't
|
|
written any outbound routines for IPv6. To my knowledge, there's no need
|
|
for it and I don't know if we'll ever have such a need on ham-based
|
|
networks for IPv6. URONode *is* the first packet node however, to support
|
|
IPv6... a historical milestone I do believe.
|
|
|
|
While I was testing SystemD and finally realizing that the above IPv6
|
|
conversions were true, I created a menu system for IPv6 to make it a lot
|
|
cleaner than it already was... actually it had none. Since it's also
|
|
spawned by SystemD, I made that the prompt for IPv6...
|
|
SystemD - n1uro@fedora.n1uro.ampr.org:
|
|
I was going to dupe the IPv4 prompt but decided it should have it's own
|
|
to follow with the scope of how I maintain this project. So far everything
|
|
in regards to both SystemD and IPv6 seem to be working fine.
|
|
|
|
31/03/2016 - v2.5.1 (Maintenance release)
|
|
Added better error handling output to FlexD and axDigi. Now they tell you
|
|
when they've properly received your -HUP, your -TERM or your start. This
|
|
should help you all in better debugging your backend engines (FlexD, axDigi,
|
|
etc.)
|
|
|
|
Added a -b flag to the installer routines by suggestion of Marius YO2LOJ
|
|
so one with an existing install won't have their files totally overwritten
|
|
however they'll be backed up with a *~ flag instead during "make install".
|
|
The preferred method for upgrading an existing node as always is by using
|
|
"make upgrade" which only copies over the files required for that version.
|
|
Once in a while a new field will be added or one deleted from the file
|
|
uronode.conf, or one of the others and I've noticed sysops don't pay
|
|
any attention to the new field requirements (ex: RoseId is the latest
|
|
add). Compare the fields in files before just copying them back over!
|
|
|
|
Gus I0OJJ and our own Bob VE3TOK reported strangeness in certain ALIAS
|
|
commands. I tried like heck to reproduce it here and on machines I take
|
|
care of. I knew where the issue layed but not fully being able to get
|
|
it to reproduce was a royal "b". After sending Bob code to test, he
|
|
was able to get positive results and checked it in for me.
|
|
|
|
While at it Bob increased the buffer for the reader within FlexD. Seems
|
|
Xnet may require a larger buffer than FlexNet for some reason? Bob also
|
|
checked that in. Thanks Bob.
|
|
|
|
18/04/2016 - v2.6
|
|
Removed stale and unused axdigi.conf file. Thanks to David KI6ZHD for
|
|
pointing this out that I had a stale file in the archive. This file
|
|
belonged to another digi daemon I was going to revive instead of Craig
|
|
Small's multi-interface crossport digi daemon. I find that especially
|
|
with FlexNet, a multi-interface crossport digipeat system not only is
|
|
unique to the native linux kernel BUT is also very efficient. If you
|
|
have a stale copy of axdigi.conf floating around, please delete this.
|
|
|
|
Added a question to engage or disengage interactive configure/make mode.
|
|
This idea came to me from a query I received by KI6ZHD. If you choose NOT
|
|
to use interactive mode, than you must run make/make upgrade/make install
|
|
manually. Note: ALL options including rose and flexnet WILL BE COMPILED IN.
|
|
|
|
Tomasz SP2L was seeing carriage returns when administering his server
|
|
remotely and sending SIGHUP to flexd in the terminal messages confirming
|
|
the -HUP. Removed.
|
|
|
|
Added a version output for FlexD and tweeked the one for axdigi. Now both
|
|
helper daemons will display its versions based on URONode's version and
|
|
some very brief information about themselves. flexd -v or flexd -h
|
|
along with axdigi -v or axdigi -h will bring up this information.
|
|
|
|
Decided that since there's so many commands beginning with M I would move
|
|
the MHeard command to a Jheard command. This keeps the commandset more in
|
|
line with other systems except for TheNet and X1J-4, and separates that one
|
|
command away from the volume of M's. While at it I also made a JL for
|
|
Just heard Long. If you specify an interface, Jheard/JLong engages only for
|
|
that interface. Note - JLong will say: it may time out HFers. I also had to
|
|
modify Makefile and rework the help files to match. While at it I needed to
|
|
modify the uronode.8 MAN page.
|
|
|
|
Gave Makefile a more modernized compile line option. I'm hoping this will
|
|
keep URONode one of packet's better robust nodes.
|
|
|
|
I noticed some sites were violating Software2000's NetRom specifications
|
|
by defaulting reconnect on still in their uronode.conf files. I had thought
|
|
that I fixed this in an earlier release. Perhaps I did and then migrated
|
|
an old .c file back into the mix? (wouldn't be the first time I've done
|
|
that by mistake!) Anyway... three key things Software2000 was insistant upon
|
|
were NO CTEXT, NO RECONNECT, NO GOODBYE MESSAGES. If you've noticed, I've
|
|
taken ALL that out of URONode. These things were done as to not confuse
|
|
robot scripts such as PBBS mail forwarding sessions. While other systems
|
|
may wish to continue to violate the NetRom protocol (and others) I will
|
|
do everything in my power NOT to.
|
|
|
|
I have made a diff file for JNOS2.0K that makes it a bit more user
|
|
compatible with URONode, and other linux-based nodes. For almost 30 years
|
|
TCP port 3694 has been used for inbound telnet for linux-based nodes, and
|
|
URONode is no exception... just as IP protocol 93 is for axip and UDP
|
|
port 93 is for axudp (again other systems love to violate protocols, we
|
|
try not to). Besides my little isms that I like in xNOS which I often
|
|
contributed to K2MF for MFNOS, I've began to do similar for JNOS. I'm adding
|
|
the .diff file in the main code distribution so if you do run JNOS 2.0K as
|
|
your PBBS TCP port 3694 is now recognized in JNOS with my patch. I have
|
|
as of this writing submitted it to Maiko for considerations, I don't know
|
|
if he's going to use it or not. If you do want to patch your JNOS 2.0K
|
|
copy it into your jnos source directory and run: patch -p1 -i jnos20k.diff
|
|
and you should see about a half dozen files updated. If Maiko doesn't wish
|
|
to include this and you want me to keep up to date with it, let me know.
|
|
|
|
With the recent CVE study on Winlink2000 and plain text passwords exposed, I
|
|
went through URONode to insure it wasn't posessing the same issue. By
|
|
default URONode doesn't ask for ANY passwords however it's highly suggested
|
|
that the sysop require passwords on any internet or amprnet interface. Before
|
|
yes, a sysop could require a password on an ax25/NetRom/Rose interface which
|
|
would be exposed. Now, if a sysop mistakenly tries to force a password
|
|
on RF, it will be ignored by the node so it's not exposed.
|
|
|
|
25/05/2017 - v2.7
|
|
|
|
Added an "A"nnouncements command. Sysops can use this to give users a chance
|
|
to read any announcements you and/or your club may have. I figured that I
|
|
would segment this from the "I"nformation command since a lot of guys tend
|
|
to post their system specs in the uronode.info file. If a user is seeking any
|
|
news or announcements they won't have to sort through the other information
|
|
contained within the system.info file and vice versa. A new file called
|
|
uronode.announce now needs to be with your other uronode.* files.
|
|
|
|
Added a trying state display for telnet where before there was none. Actually
|
|
there was a whole bunch of info but I had it commented out. This I did after
|
|
a recent user poll was in support of such and other "trying" state messages.
|
|
Such messages are still filtered for netrom connects.
|
|
|
|
Removed uronode.service file from the systemd group. Only uronode.socket and
|
|
uronode@service needs to be placed and engaged. This was discovered by SP2L
|
|
on his systems and I verified this on my Fedora test system (which is systemd).
|
|
Thanks to Tomasz for finding this and pointing it out to me. Without the
|
|
uronode@.service file, the uronode.socket file won't properly engage upon
|
|
a connection request via IP. Without uronode@.service your systemd will
|
|
report an error in loading the uronode.socket file:
|
|

Fixed a bug in JHeard and JLong in regards to flagging an interface that
|
|
has existed I'll guess since the beginning of time. This bug was found and
|
|
reported to me by Han PE1FAM. I was considering removing this feature
|
|
however I can understand it's usage in the way Han is using it. In the way
|
|
I have it now, the "Hidden" interface now will lock an end user from trying
|
|
to attempt connects out an interface a sysop doesn't want users connecting
|
|
out from such as an APRS interface. The interface in an "int' will not be
|
|
displayed as to be a subtle message that the interface is not usable, however
|
|
it will be displayed in a NetRom "Routes" list and in J/JL request.
|
|
If an attempt to connect out a "hidden port" is made the user is shown an error:
|
|
n1uro-15@n1uro.ampr.org:/uronode$ c ax1 foo
|
|
Not a user interface.
|
|
The reason I did this was so that you may see propagation in a heard list
|
|
in the event of ducting for some VHF/UHF "dx"ing so to speak.
|
|
**Note: do NOT flag a L4 protocol interface such as a NetRom interface
|
|
as a locked interface or the node will not deliberately load.
|
|
Thanks to Han for reporting this.
|
|
|
|
While working on new node W1WCG, I noticed some code clean up in node.c
|
|
There's still a lot more to do especially with ANSI.
|
|
|
|
15/06/2017 - v2.8
|
|
|
|
In gateway.c I cleaned up the do_ping routing slightly. I was going to add
|
|
a default timer but instead decided to let the user hit enter for their own
|
|
"timer" of sorts. Users are also now instructed on the node to hit enter
|
|
in order to abort a ping.
|
|
|
|
Cleaned up do_nodes so now if there's a slime trail node, rather than prefix
|
|
it with a colon ":", now it will display ##TEMP: instead. This was sorta
|
|
bugging me on just how to handle these. While I was at it, I made a
|
|
modification to gateway.c so if a user tried to "C ##TEMP" it instructs the
|
|
end user to use the callsign-ssid. I can't think of any other node that does
|
|
this.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Dave Hibbard (at Debian) for pointing out a dropped "t" in the word
|
|
"software" in flexd.c when the -v switch is used.
|
|
|
|
Cleaned up some prompt routines including the ipv4/ipv6 login sequences.
|
|
Before (especially with ipv6) if a callsign had no permissions to login via
|
|
the internet they were never informed how to gain access - they were simply
|
|
denied. I found this to somewhat make the node a bit unfriendly. Fixed.
|
|
|
|
With all the chatter on the 44-net list about IPv6, I've decided to get my
|
|
block active for further testing. In doing so, I noticed that if a user
|
|
telnetted in via IPv6 and made a NetRom connect out, the node failed to
|
|
inform them that they were connected... fixed.
|
|
|
|
As of this writing there's no outboud telnet or dns functions for IPv6
|
|
but that's not to say it's not in the works. Personally, I don't see a
|
|
true need for IPv6 outbound for amateur radio as the amprnet is going
|
|
quite strong however that's not to say things may not change either. If
|
|
anything, IPv6 through an HE.net tunnel works as slick as the amprnet
|
|
does with the exception of how it handles dynamic clients. Other than
|
|
that, it does appear to tunnel through your ISP filters as amprnet
|
|
does which is a plus.
|
|
|
|
12/07/2017 v2.8.1
|
|
Spotted and fixed an issue in the D command within router.c that I somehow
|
|
introduced in regards to columns not equalling a full 4x4. Locally it didn't
|
|
show but remotely it did. When one ran a D command and there were less than
|
|
4 columns a carriage return/new line was not sent making the user's screen
|
|
look "stuck" when in fact it was not. Fixed!.. before bugs were reported :)
|
|
Note: this *only* affected an incoming NetRom connection.
|
|
|
|
Changed this file and node.h to reflect 2.8.1.
|
|
|
|
27/05/2018 v2.9
|
|
Changed the abort message from "Connection Aborted" to just "Aborted".
|
|
The madness in the logic is that FBB and other PBBS scripts may only
|
|
read "Connect" and send their next command in their sequence and thus
|
|
causing a bit of a loop.
|
|
|
|
Changed version number in node.h
|
|
Changed this file.
|
|
|
|
I noticed that an IPv6 connection did NOT offer EXit as a command. Fixed.
|
|
|
|
I also noticed that for an IPv6 connection, when running an external command
|
|
it did not inform the user that they were being returned to the node which
|
|
may hint that the plug-in is not returning to the node properly, or is
|
|
exiting/forking prior to it's close. This is now fixed.
|
|
|
|
Mainly for sysop debugging purposes but also for end users, when executing a
|
|
plugin such as NS or tracer, it'll still open with "Executing command" but now
|
|
it will return back to the node prompt with "Command ended.". This lets both
|
|
the sysop and end user know the command exited properly, like with a
|
|
"return 0"
|
|
|
|
I decided that just having IPv6 as a trailer for IPv6 connects at the prompt
|
|
to be a bit vague in display so to keep it a bit more consistant with IPv4
|
|
it now will show ...:/uronode6 instead.
|
|
|
|
Fixed the "Sockets:" line in the Status command display. The word "Sessions"
|
|
was off by one space throwing all the following column headers off by 1 space.
|
|
|
|
17/10/2018 v2.10
|
|
Edited node.h to reflect this version.
|
|
|
|
Edited CHANGES.3 to include new changes to the node.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Marius YO2LOJ for a patch in do_ports within command.c where there
|
|
is a possibility that the interface count may return NULL and the function
|
|
will generate an exception in libc for the routine causing the node to
|
|
segment fault out and disconnect the user from the node. Good to see Marius
|
|
digging into the code again.
|
|
|
|
While at it Marius also discovered the possibility of the interface showing
|
|
as "null" in the do_sessions routine, possibly due to some changes in
|
|
libax25 perhaps? Under some conditions ax25_config_get_name(dev) could return
|
|
a null pointer - Marius YO2LOJ
|
|
|
|
Changed a call that was in axdigi.c which had a lib call hardcoded and could
|
|
break compiles under different archs. Patch supplied by Helmut Grohne, thanks
|
|
to KI6ZHD for relaying the mail that included the patch.
|
|
|
|
03/03/2020 v2.11
|
|
Changed node.h to reflect current version.
|
|
|
|
Note: The system has been behaving as best as it can be expected considering
|
|
it's a front-end to the linux protocol stacks. As long as there can be an
|
|
ax# or sp# interface, it can attach to it and work the protocol(s) the user
|
|
wishes to use. There's still the 2-line patch that the kernel maintainers
|
|
need to add to ax25.ko so that netrom will continue to properly function
|
|
however that's not the issue of URONode, it's the kernel ax25 module.
|
|
|
|
Made a couple of changes in gateway.c where the color schema wasn't properly
|
|
resetting the netrom prompt only in regards to aborting ping or a connect
|
|
request. This is now fixed.
|
|
|
|
Made changes in system.c where it wasn't displaying the user being on IPv6
|
|
properly. While at it, I changed how it handles the user when they're on
|
|
IPv4 in the lastlog and loggedin databases.
|
|
|
|
Changed user.c to reflect incoming session is via IPv6 which also fixes the
|
|
output of nodeusers so that instead of displaying ??????? it now shows that
|
|
Telnet6 is being used as the incoming protocol. This one was really getting
|
|
under my skin. Now I can rest in peace (as per QST 2/2020 haha!)
|
|
|
|
28/03/2020 v2.12
|
|
Edited node.h to reflect new version.
|
|
|
|
ADDED documentation! I wrote docs in both .txt and .doc format. Choose your
|
|
poison hihi! Unless you're a new sysop, I'm sure these are a waste of time
|
|
for you to read.
|
|
|
|
Modified the do_sessions command so that a plain S now shows SEssions and
|
|
ST is the minimum required now for do_status. This also cleans up the
|
|
commandset so it's more alphabetical.
|
|
|
|
I also modified do_status so that it now may require an argument to show
|
|
the full screen worth of system status otherwise by default it will only
|
|
show very basic stats of version/date/hostname/uptime and now requires
|
|
"ST" to be called. Calling "ST L" will show the long (original) status
|
|
screens. I did this after noticing some other node softwares go to the
|
|
extreme in showing stats that most end users would never understand nor
|
|
even care about. This also saves a lot of bandwidth!
|
|
|
|
17/01/2020 v2.13
|
|
|
|
Changed the external command text to inform the end user that the escape
|
|
sequence (CTRL-T typically) is disabled while an external command is run.
|
|
I've been wanting to do this for a while to preserve integrity for the
|
|
user. This required an edit in cmdparse.c
|
|
|
|
Edited node.h to reflect this version.
|
|
|
|
Cleaned up the status command. Prior *any* single character would print the
|
|
long status report. Now either "l" OR "L" will be accepted. If another
|
|
character is pressed an error will display:
|
|
n1uro-15@n1uro.ampr.org:/uronode6: st s
|
|
Usage: status l OR status L
|
|
|
|
** IMPORTANT **
|
|
-= IF YOU DO NOT READ THIS YOU WILL APPEAR BROKEN =-
|
|
To be more compliant with downstreams I moved the files in /var/ax25/
|
|
to now be looked for in /var/lib/ax25 which appears to be the new file
|
|
system ruleset by the linux gods. I did NOT make this up. I would *strongly*
|
|
urge you to copy over your current /var/ax25/node/* files after running
|
|
"make upgrade" unless you wish to start with a fresh system of sorts.
|
|
Your config files in etc/ax25 won't be moved or touched and the man
|
|
pages will remain where they are. Your help files, perhaps your ROSE
|
|
directory (if you use rose.hlp like I do), and user logs will be reset.
|
|
Users will be all considered new again so to prevent this from occurring
|
|
I would move those files over.
|
|
|
|

|
|
Fixed a display issue when connecting via flex/ax.25 in regard to the desti
|
|
table where an additional line feed was presented upon the last row being
|
|
a full 4-wide. This was done in router.c
|
|
|
|
I went through multiple files that were giving compile warnings and fixed
|
|
all the warnings I saw. Hopefully URONode compiles without any warnings
|
|
whatsoever. If you do send me your log.
|
|
|
|
Note: Linux is on kernel 5.x now and since kernel 4.2, the ax.25 stack module
|
|
in the kernel has had a minor issue of NOT closing an ax.25 socket when used
|
|
with NetRom as a virtual circuit. This prohibits other NetRom sockets from
|
|
being created/established. This is an awful long time to allow such a bug
|
|
to linger. Until this bug is fixed (to which I have nothing to do with) there's
|
|
not much more I can do with the node. Some guys are more than able to do
|
|
their own kernel compiles, others are not however I seem to get the blame of
|
|
faulty software when this is far from the truth. Until this bug is resolved
|
|
and fixed, the project is on an indefinite pause.
|
|
|
|
22/10/2021 2.15
|
|
K3CHB found when running "make" that it was erroring on util.c due to dupe
|
|
calls. Removing those calls fixes this bug and allows URONode to compile
|
|
now without error on newer GCC systems. Older ones were a lot more tollerant
|
|
to bugs like this.
|
|
|
|
----------- Note on SystemD --------
|
|
In uronode.socket, you'll notice the line:
|
|
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:3694
|
|
This tells SystemD to listen on TCP socket 3694 for any IPv4 ONLY incoming
|
|
connection. If you wish to filter JUST your amprnet and IPv4 localhost
|
|
IPs make a line for each changing 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1 and another for
|
|
your amprnet IP. This will by default filter any commercial IP requests
|
|
to URONode. If you want SystemD to try IPv6 *first*, don't enter in any
|
|
IP schemas and just list the port number. SystemD by default appears to
|
|
use IPv6 prior to IPv4.
|
|
|
|
You can verify the above by running systemctl status uronode.socket:
|
|
ystemctl status uronode.socket
