Speaker 1: Hey, before we get started, be sure to head over
Speaker 1: to ham Radio two dot com forward slash email dash
Speaker 1: sign up to join my email list of over nineteen
Speaker 1: thousand subscribers, where I like to send emails about upcoming events,
Speaker 1: upcoming shopping deals, keep you updated with all the stuff
Speaker 1: going on with my videos. Once that list reaches twenty thousand,
Speaker 1: I will be doing a giveaway of another HF radio
Speaker 1: sign up today and thank you for the support. Okay, guys,
Speaker 1: we're gonna get started. Sorry for the delay. I was
Speaker 1: tinkering around with some back end stuff and this is
Speaker 1: going to be a learning experience tonight because as it
Speaker 1: turns out, I still don't know what I'm doing with
Speaker 1: this stuff, and we'll see what We'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: Looks like the volume is good. I'm gonna mute there
Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna transition it over right there. Good evening,
Speaker 1: Happy Thanksgiving, Black Friday, holiday weekend. Really cool to see
Speaker 1: everybody in Josh's live stream last night for the Teacher's
Speaker 1: Institute telethon. I dropped off about eleven o'clock my time.
Speaker 1: I think that was about two hours before they ended,
Speaker 1: and I assumed they met their goal. I didn't go back,
Speaker 1: and I saw some good positive comments on it today,
Speaker 1: but I didn't go back and watch the rest of
Speaker 1: the live stream. It turned out to be like eight
Speaker 1: hours long. But hey, good, good for you guys. But
Speaker 1: so that was a that was a fun thing to do.
Speaker 1: Shout out to those guys for allowing me to join
Speaker 1: and be part of that group. Okay, let's I've changed
Speaker 1: some stuff around. Oh right here, how about that one
Speaker 1: right there? Yeah, how about that one right there there?
Speaker 1: You guys are what's up?
Speaker 2: Hello?
Speaker 1: These are these are my These are my all star experts.
Speaker 1: Kyle thinks that I've surpassed him, and I'm like, no, no,
Speaker 1: if I had, If I had, you wouldn't be here
Speaker 1: right now. So just trust me on that.
Speaker 3: I'm just happy to be here.
Speaker 1: Oh boy. Okay, So long story short. We have as
Speaker 1: I think it's ASL one point zero, isn't it?
Speaker 2: Right point one? I think it is one point one.
Speaker 1: Okay. I've had that running on my cloud compute service
Speaker 1: for about two years, and I know it's two years
Speaker 1: because let's switch over right here. Okay, you guys should
Speaker 1: see that. Okay, So right here are the instances on
Speaker 1: the back end. Of my hosting service. Make that a
Speaker 1: little bit bigger. And this one right here, this is
Speaker 1: my sea bridge at the bottom, and this one is
Speaker 1: my my Debian nine server at the in the middle
Speaker 1: wind there, and it says it's been running for two
Speaker 1: years and one month, so it's been it's been there
Speaker 1: a little while. And then this one I created just now,
Speaker 1: and I created it with Debian ten. But but I
Speaker 1: can for whatever reason I've been I've spent the last
Speaker 1: twenty minutes or so trying to attach. So in order
Speaker 1: to in order to access these servers via SSH, you
Speaker 1: have to upload inside of putty what's called an authorization
Speaker 1: key or a key pair, I think they call it.
Speaker 1: If you go into putty, shoot, that's not the right thing.
Speaker 1: If you go into putty and you scroll down the uh, well,
Speaker 1: I've got it here I can show you. Guys. Let's
Speaker 1: go over there and let's turn this off be a
Speaker 1: little bit easier to see. There we go, so we
Speaker 1: go into putty here, and we go down to SSH
Speaker 1: down here on the kind of towards the bottom left,
Speaker 1: and we go into authorization and a private key file
Speaker 1: for authentication. So you create these private keys on the
Speaker 1: server and then you download this key five to text
Speaker 1: file and you store it locally on your hard drive
Speaker 1: and you browse to it. So you put the path
Speaker 1: to the file in this little window here, and then
Speaker 1: you come back up to session. You put your IP
Speaker 1: address and your port in and you connect to it.
Speaker 1: And supposedly that keeps people from being able to hack
Speaker 1: your password or you know, session jack you or something
Speaker 1: like that, because you have to physically have that key
Speaker 1: on your computer to log into that SSH session on
Speaker 1: that IP address. Cool, no problem, And I've got a
Speaker 1: key for both my c bridge and the old server.
Speaker 1: But I've been but what I've been tinkering with for
Speaker 1: the last twenty minutes or so is I can't figure
Speaker 1: out how to attach the key to the new server.
Speaker 1: The keys attached to the two older servers I've got,
Speaker 1: but it's not attached. But I've poked around in here
Speaker 1: for the last almost half hour trying to figure out
Speaker 1: how to attach it to the to the new server.
Speaker 1: I can't figure it out. So and Freddie just now
Speaker 1: tells me that I should be running WN twelve. The
Speaker 1: old server is running WN nine. The new server the
Speaker 1: new server, I'd install W in ten. But we do
Speaker 1: have an app option for WN ten, eleven, and twelve,
Speaker 1: a couple of options for a boontu and something else
Speaker 1: in there. So rather than kind of so I think
Speaker 1: what we're I think what I want to try to do? Okay,
Speaker 1: now this is gonna nuke everything I want to And wait,
Speaker 1: I do have a backup. I do have a backup
Speaker 1: of the existing server. And what I was gonna do
Speaker 1: is come in here and turn on this existing server
Speaker 1: and turn off or actually I was gonna pause the
Speaker 1: existing server while we while we spun up the new server.
Speaker 1: But I think what I might do is just create
Speaker 1: a backup of this existing server. And it's it's these
Speaker 1: are all virtual servers, so it's a it's an instance
Speaker 1: on a volume on a virtual server. It's like three
Speaker 1: layers deep or some grap like that. But but I
Speaker 1: can create a backup. And then I think, I'm going
Speaker 1: to try to upgrade this server to WN twelve, which
Speaker 1: doesn't take very When I install Debian on the other
Speaker 1: servers it took like three to four minutes. It wouldn't
Speaker 1: wouldn't very bad at all. And then and then we're
Speaker 1: going to try to see what what we what we're
Speaker 1: gonna do with that, but it's gonna nuke everything. And
Speaker 1: if this fails for whatever reason tonight, then I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be all Star server is gonna be down for a
Speaker 1: couple of days. But I'll get with dream host support tomorrow,
Speaker 1: probably get it up and running tomorrow if this fails tonight.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. But who's uh, who's with me?
Speaker 1: Who wants to go break some stuff tonight? What do
Speaker 1: you guys think?
Speaker 2: I'm with you?
Speaker 4: Man? I put in the zoom chat the instructions for
Speaker 4: Debian twelve. I've never tried them, but they're from all
Speaker 4: Star link.
Speaker 1: So is that the link you sent me earlier today?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: I just now sent it in the zoom chat. Okay,
Speaker 4: the instructions early are for deb twelve.
Speaker 2: This is for Debian ten.
Speaker 1: Oh no, So which one's for twelve? Then?
Speaker 2: The one I sent you? Now, there's also if you
Speaker 2: that same.
Speaker 1: Thing one right now? The one you just sent me
Speaker 1: looks like it has twelve, eleven and ten on it.
Speaker 2: It does, that's that's their pay. But they eight?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 2: Q up to twelve or to ten? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did it? Did it came down there to ten? Okay? Well,
Speaker 1: I I'd rather I would rather run the latest version, honestly,
Speaker 1: so that way it's a little bit more future proof.
Speaker 1: And you know we we don't we're not gonna have
Speaker 1: to do an upgrade anytime soon, so long termfully right,
Speaker 1: exactly exactly. So so let's go in here, and this
Speaker 1: is my all Star server right now. So you guys
Speaker 1: are gonna get kicked out here in a minute. If
Speaker 1: everything goes well tonight, I will invite everyone to connect
Speaker 1: back to for three one three six. But we'll see
Speaker 1: how it goes here. And there's the there's the instructions
Speaker 1: you sent me earlier, Freddy, Oh yep, that's it, right,
Speaker 1: And then okay, so if so, I'm just gonna I
Speaker 1: don't know exactly how to do this, so we're just
Speaker 1: gonna kind of start clicking on things. The best way
Speaker 1: to do it, the absolute best way to Okay, create snapshot.
Speaker 1: I think I want to do that because that's a backup.
Speaker 1: Create snapshot. Let me just put twelve one twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm gonna call it, all Star whatever. Okay,
Speaker 1: create a snapshot so that maybe maybe I can restore
Speaker 1: it if we really food bar it. But you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know, Uh you never know the date of
Speaker 1: the last snapshot, and here was October eighteenth of twenty
Speaker 1: twenty two. So it's been a while. Yeah, it's been
Speaker 1: a while. Uh okay, so we've got that. Okay, that's
Speaker 1: good there, So let's uh, I need to zoom that
Speaker 1: back out. Let's see what my Okay, if I go
Speaker 1: over here to images. Okay, so here's the images I
Speaker 1: have access to. Debbie in ten eleven and twelve, Fedora
Speaker 1: thirty five, Boontu fourteen oh four, that's really old, eighteen
Speaker 1: four four, twenty four four.
Speaker 2: I just go straight up with Debian twelve.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's what I want to do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we have instructions for that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well I and that's probably the best thing
Speaker 1: to do right now. Is this a Nuggets episode? Jeff
Speaker 1: says no, but we're gonna try to break something like
Speaker 1: they do. Arthur says all star harder. That's a good
Speaker 1: one right there. I say, all right, So let's see.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna I'm gonna tinker around here. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: launch create volume. I don't want to create a volume.
Speaker 1: I want to upgrade a volume.
Speaker 3: DJ as a you know, I don't know what anything
Speaker 3: about dream host, But he says, what I would do
Speaker 3: is create the new server with everything you need before
Speaker 3: you shut down the old server. That's why that way,
Speaker 3: whoever is permanently connected to your hub will just jump
Speaker 3: right over. Is that an option?
Speaker 1: That was the plan. That was the plan. And as
Speaker 1: I explained a moment ago, I can't figure out how
Speaker 1: to attach an authorization key to the new server, so
Speaker 1: I can't SS. So I have the new sewer server
Speaker 1: up and running with W and ten right now and
Speaker 1: it's right here, but you just can't. But I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't s sh inten because I I can't figure
Speaker 1: out how to connect a key to it. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was that was the original plan, was to do that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's that's so we can we can call
Speaker 1: this no, that's okay.
Speaker 3: So I was just to fulfill my frank duties there
Speaker 3: by not listening.
Speaker 1: By not listening and offering up, offering up suggestions that
Speaker 1: I've already said that you're doing a bang up job.
Speaker 1: That's a bang up job.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna just sit in the background for a while.
Speaker 2: You guys can just talk amongst yourselves, just talk.
Speaker 1: Gosh, okay, So all right, let me poke around in here,
Speaker 1: so you guys talk about something while I'm doing this
Speaker 1: real quick so that I'm not talking and trying to
Speaker 1: read at the same time.
Speaker 3: Freddie, what's what's your latest All Star video that you
Speaker 3: got going on? I saw you dead, Like, didn't you
Speaker 3: do a weather video where you could do some weather plugins.
Speaker 4: I've done a few of those those Skyworn plus videos.
Speaker 4: Nace Mels, I know words, I know how to speak.
Speaker 4: Mason Nelson in five lsn over in Arkansas wrote this
Speaker 4: program originally for Hamboid. I'm sorry for ASL because he
Speaker 4: had a network of GMRS repeaters in Arkansas, and you know,
Speaker 4: when this whole GMRS kerfuffle was going on about you know,
Speaker 4: can you link him over the internet or can you not?
Speaker 4: He decided, you know, I'm going to be proactive.
Speaker 2: He took his network down threw.
Speaker 4: It back up on seventy centimeters because he was a
Speaker 4: ham as well. So he's got a network of All
Speaker 4: Star link repeaters now. So he's like, I need a
Speaker 4: really good program because Auto Sky was the weather program
Speaker 4: that came with Hamboid.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's that's what I have. I have Auto
Speaker 3: Sky on mine.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Well, he wanted to make it more robust, and he
Speaker 4: keeps doing that.
Speaker 2: Bless his wife.
Speaker 4: She sat and recorded every freaking phrase that is spoken
Speaker 4: by a female on that entire program, including over one
Speaker 4: hundred and seventy some model alerts. You know, the different
Speaker 4: types of alerts from the National Weather Service.
Speaker 3: March. You're not saying it right.
Speaker 4: I can just imagine what those discussions were like, Oh jeez,
Speaker 4: but he made it robust.
Speaker 2: You can even narrow it down.
Speaker 4: Let's say you want to be alerted for like three
Speaker 4: different counties. You can narrow you can drill it down
Speaker 4: to that. You can add and delete what kind of
Speaker 4: alert you want to get.
Speaker 2: You can make it do execute script files.
Speaker 4: If a certain National Weather Service an alert comes down
Speaker 4: for like a tornado warning, I set one up so
Speaker 4: like three of our local repeaters would I'll hook up
Speaker 4: and connect for the duration and when the when the
Speaker 4: alert is cleared, that same script file clears them all
Speaker 4: in disconnect all the all the repeaters. It's just one
Speaker 4: little thing that that they can It's it's full, full,
Speaker 4: full of features.
Speaker 3: And what is that called again?
Speaker 4: Sky worn plus. He has a GitHub page if you
Speaker 4: will look up Mason Nelson sky worn.
Speaker 3: Plus okay, very good. I'm gonna have to take a
Speaker 3: look man.
Speaker 4: As gee whiz, he's he's so stinking smart.
Speaker 2: But one of my latest I've been working on.
Speaker 4: Of course, I just got you know, hanvoy paths, the
Speaker 4: what we call the time and weather top of the hour.
Speaker 4: It would save the time and give the weather conditions,
Speaker 4: the temperature and the weather conditions. Well that didn't come
Speaker 4: stock in ASL three. We could set it up real
Speaker 4: quick to do just the time. And they were trying
Speaker 4: to get all the little bugs worked out, you know
Speaker 4: when they released it, because they were having some small
Speaker 4: issues with Shari pies and they got all that straightened out,
Speaker 4: and I mean just a ton of little things, tweaks, improvements.
Speaker 3: All kinds of.
Speaker 4: So I spent about two solid days because I don't
Speaker 4: know script files that well, but I you know, between
Speaker 4: me chat GPT and a coworker who is a Linux genius,
Speaker 4: Joe Urban, You're you're, you're the greatest dude. I mean,
Speaker 4: this guy is so smart with arch Lenox and Debian twelve.
Speaker 4: I got everything converted over from arch Lenox to Debian
Speaker 4: twelve and I had it saying the time, had it
Speaker 4: given the temperature, but it wouldn't give the weather conditions.
Speaker 4: And uh, it was just a matter of installing Basic Calculator,
Speaker 4: a little app and changing the symbolic links between locate
Speaker 4: and a new program called p locate, and then boom,
Speaker 4: the whole thing took off. And it's a little difficult
Speaker 4: to install, but I have since created a script file
Speaker 4: to make that a lot easier. And that's a coming
Speaker 4: up video pretty quick. So try to ease the process
Speaker 4: for the installation way.
Speaker 2: If you've got a.
Speaker 4: SL three and you want your time in weather announcement's back,
Speaker 4: it's coming.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be now.
Speaker 4: It's just it's a little entailed, right, a lot of typing.
Speaker 3: Man, I am looking at this skyworn plus. Holy moly.
Speaker 1: Yeah told you.
Speaker 4: You can do alerts to your cell phone if you want.
Speaker 4: There's a little app tie in for an API called pushover.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I actually knew a developer that was developing
Speaker 3: on pushover, but he is since quit. But yeah, I know,
Speaker 3: I know pushover.
Speaker 4: Over and he's got that where you can create some
Speaker 4: of custom alerts if you want to some custom i'm
Speaker 4: sorry station IDs through some an API, through a virtual
Speaker 4: text of speech service.
Speaker 2: It's for free if you do less than so many.
Speaker 4: I think it's like one hundred and thirty words a
Speaker 4: day or three hundred and thirty words or something like that.
Speaker 2: But he's got it set up.
Speaker 4: If say, a tornado warning or tornado watch is issued
Speaker 4: for your area, and you can set it up to
Speaker 4: type in a DTMF code and it will take that
Speaker 4: whole warning and convert it over to speech and play
Speaker 4: it so that it's playing.
Speaker 2: Over your note. Yeah, I have a local repeat or
Speaker 2: something like that.
Speaker 4: You would only want to play it once because it's
Speaker 4: full of text and know there's a lot of words
Speaker 4: going out over the air. But it's just it's one
Speaker 4: of the many, many little twerks and options that he
Speaker 4: puts in there because he whiz. Every time he's somebody
Speaker 4: will put up something new on his GitHub and like, hey,
Speaker 4: can you make it do this?
Speaker 2: And if he can't, he can sure enough get close
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have a skyworn You know, I'm sure that
Speaker 3: people out there, I haven't been looking at the chat,
Speaker 3: but I'm sure that people out there that have really
Speaker 3: good skyworn communities, you know, Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, a lot
Speaker 3: of them are a lot better than some of the
Speaker 3: communities in Missouri. The only ones that I'm familiar with
Speaker 3: are the ones here in Saint Louis, and they have
Speaker 3: basically whenever a tornado warning or thunderstorm warning gets published,
Speaker 3: the repeater keys up and all it does is just
Speaker 3: it it hears the tones, and it just it just
Speaker 3: broadcasts the information from the National Weather Service, and that's it.
Speaker 3: That is the only thing it does, you know. And
Speaker 3: so if you're not on the repeater, you have no idea,
Speaker 3: like you know, you just get on. Let's say you
Speaker 3: just got into your car, turn on the repeater, you
Speaker 3: have no idea, like you know that there might be
Speaker 3: a warning out there. But also there is no automation
Speaker 3: on the back end to like link repeaters and and
Speaker 3: do some other stuff that I'm seeing here. Whenever, like
Speaker 3: you know, sky warn or whenever you know, you've got
Speaker 3: this program enabled and.
Speaker 4: He didn't make that, you can set it up. So
Speaker 4: if you get an alert, if you designated a set
Speaker 4: amount of alerts or or National Weather Service or alerts
Speaker 4: or watches or what have you, it will change your
Speaker 4: courtesy tone. So if you do key up on the right,
Speaker 4: your courtesy tone is different. You're like, hey, something's going on.
Speaker 4: And then it will throw it in every I don't know,
Speaker 4: every three to five minutes. It'll throw a tail message
Speaker 4: in at the end of the transmission saying tornado warning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then.
Speaker 4: If you designate the county, it will spout the county
Speaker 4: name as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So iman, you get a little que if you just
Speaker 4: get in the car and everything is already fired out
Speaker 4: and you don't know what's going on. You key up
Speaker 4: on that repeater and you've got a different courtesy tone.
Speaker 4: It's you're cue to know something's up. After a while,
Speaker 4: you get that tail message, which really helps super But yeah,
Speaker 4: sky warn Plus is a really good addition.
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong.
Speaker 4: I love Otto's Guy. I really did, because it was
Speaker 4: it was a very basic form of that. You got
Speaker 4: your alerts and you'd get you had to set up
Speaker 4: your tail messages a little more difficult, but you could
Speaker 4: do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my uh my uh not node my weather radio
Speaker 3: went out and I didn't know, And I just keep
Speaker 3: my my All Star radio on all the time, and
Speaker 3: I just have my IDs muted during from like ten
Speaker 3: pm until seven am, but I have the auto sky
Speaker 3: alert me and I hear the the Beaufong go off
Speaker 3: and I know that you know there's there's a warning
Speaker 3: or or you know, a a U not a warning?
Speaker 3: A what is the one before a watch?
Speaker 1: Geez tornado? Watch? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Thanks? So it's been a long four days. I think
Speaker 3: I'm still jacked up on turkey?
Speaker 1: Still you should I still or whatever? Yeah? Oh goodness, Okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: My wife had surgery a week and a half ago
Speaker 4: and she's got a long recovery ahead of her. But
Speaker 4: she's feeling better. So now it's just like I'm babysitting
Speaker 4: to keep.
Speaker 2: Her from hurting herself.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, just like constantly trying to keep make sure
Speaker 4: not gonna get over confident.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Just it's a lot.
Speaker 4: But you know what she's worth that she put up
Speaker 4: with me for this many years. It's all worth it,
Speaker 4: all good.
Speaker 1: Huh gosh, all right, moment of truth.
Speaker 3: How's your stuff coming there? Jason?
Speaker 1: Oh yes, I think we got it. Refused our key
Speaker 1: no supported authentication methods.
Speaker 5: Okay, hold on medication methods okay.
Speaker 1: I was able to recreate a new server, so I
Speaker 1: knew the new server that I just created. I was
Speaker 1: able to create a new server with de Wian twelve
Speaker 1: and it let me attach a key this time. I
Speaker 1: think it's something I just missed the first time. So
Speaker 1: it's telling me that I have a key attached and
Speaker 1: let me h hold on. Oh gosh, stop that stupid
Speaker 1: Windows search.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Windows finds new ways to.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, here.
Speaker 3: Well Jason's doing that, Freddy, What are what are some
Speaker 3: other cool plugins that I don't know about in all
Speaker 3: Star that I need to Are.
Speaker 4: You familiar with DV switch Oh yeah, I on mine
Speaker 4: a little bit.
Speaker 3: I saw many many moons ago. I saw a YouTube
Speaker 3: video of where some guy installed DV switch and it
Speaker 3: was a pain in the butt. But I'm assuming that
Speaker 3: you're gonna tell me that it's gotten better.
Speaker 4: Well, in a lot of ways it has. Now there's
Speaker 4: two different kinds. They're both from the same folks. You
Speaker 4: got dv switch Server and you got dv switch Mobile. Okay,
Speaker 4: so dv switch Mobile is just an a happy on
Speaker 4: an Android device. Can't put it on an Apple device yet.
Speaker 2: I hope you can, subdey. You never can tell.
Speaker 4: But all that is doing is doing an IAX phone connection,
Speaker 4: if you will, over the internet says into your all
Speaker 4: Star node, into your all Star node, so that you're
Speaker 4: using it half duplex PTT just like you are a
Speaker 4: radio and it's super super handy. But dvswitch Server is
Speaker 4: installed on your all Star node alongside of your all
Speaker 4: Star Link installation, and you can configure it to I
Speaker 4: can initially configured it to take my Brandmeister Talk group
Speaker 4: or now my TGIF talk group on DMR and links
Speaker 4: it to my all Star Link connection. You put in
Speaker 4: a private node and you just connect them to one
Speaker 4: another after it's configured. So if you're talking on DMR,
Speaker 4: it's bridging right over to ASL, yeah, and vice versa,
Speaker 4: and it has its uses. But that same hand, you
Speaker 4: can throw in a command line and switch it over
Speaker 4: to a different You can switch it over to YSF.
Speaker 2: And then change.
Speaker 4: The room if you will or what have you, and
Speaker 4: next thing you know, you're in like the toad server
Speaker 4: for their YSF.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, does it do it? Does
Speaker 3: wires X rooms too?
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure how it coincides with wires X because
Speaker 4: wires X and YSF are two different things and they
Speaker 4: but they bridge certain YSF top groups, so I'm sure
Speaker 4: it can be done there.
Speaker 1: I haven't ventured often. You have to do that manually
Speaker 1: that's what I was thinking. Yeah, you have to do that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So wires X is the network owned by Jesu, and
Speaker 1: then YSF and FCS reflectors are basically what you use
Speaker 1: when you're on pie Star or open spot or whatever.
Speaker 1: And in order to get one of those connections, reflectors
Speaker 1: bridge to an actual wires X room, you and I
Speaker 1: have to do it. Somebody's done it on the back end, right,
Speaker 1: so it's not vanilla inside of size of jesus X.
Speaker 3: So somebody's got to run wires X and their home
Speaker 3: and pipe it to a like pipe it to a
Speaker 3: an FtM four hundred and then it connects to the
Speaker 3: hot spot that is connected to the YSF server right exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a.
Speaker 4: Little bit, but you know that's a little clue gi.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it kind of is what it is.
Speaker 4: You know, there's your there's your RF link exactly exactly now,
Speaker 4: and dv switch server will also do uh okay, I
Speaker 4: want to say nxd N if I'm not mistaken, and
Speaker 4: d star, but I'm not sure it does d star
Speaker 4: very well at all without those a MBE modules. Oh yeah,
Speaker 4: you have to plug against like actual hardware.
Speaker 2: They're a little pricey.
Speaker 4: But from what I've told those folks who like D
Speaker 4: Star that it's worth it.
Speaker 2: D Star makes me angry. I don't know why.
Speaker 4: It's a lot, it's a lot to configure, but it is.
Speaker 2: It is really good.
Speaker 4: I mean, this sound is good, but it's it's just
Speaker 4: it's a lot YSF. You're going DMR, you get your ID,
Speaker 4: you're going, yeah, but.
Speaker 2: Yep, yep is what it is.
Speaker 3: But but none of them compare to the warmness of
Speaker 3: the All Star, where it sounds clear and crisp. And
Speaker 3: that's one thing that I just did not like about
Speaker 3: all of those digital modes, where they sounded very digital, digitally.
Speaker 4: Very digital, and if your signal degra date degrades at all,
Speaker 4: it really gets humble and you can't you can't understand anything. Yeah, analog,
Speaker 4: you know, if your signal gets a little weak, you
Speaker 4: get a little static, and you can.
Speaker 2: Still make most of it out. Yeah yeah, And I'll
Speaker 2: tell you what.
Speaker 4: And I don't mean to disrespect anyone at EchoLink, I don't,
Speaker 4: but dad gum it, it was just so the quality
Speaker 4: was just so low. Yeah yeah, yeah, the audio quality
Speaker 4: and the way looked up.
Speaker 2: It was just it was it really really.
Speaker 3: Was Jeff Fast. Does it bridge TOM seventeen?
Speaker 4: Not yet, but I would bet you a dime to
Speaker 4: a donut hole that the guys at dB switch or
Speaker 4: very taking a hard look at that, because you can
Speaker 4: bridge to it or connect to it through pie Stars
Speaker 4: if you got the you know, the right equipment excuse me,
Speaker 4: the right radio, I should say, But I don't know
Speaker 4: why they wouldn't. But you know, it's like an open
Speaker 4: source project, like a lot of stuff for ham Ray,
Speaker 4: So I'm sure it'll take.
Speaker 2: It a while.
Speaker 4: But I don't know of anything that exists yet that'll
Speaker 4: bridge to M seventeen.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think so, not yet.
Speaker 2: See if I can bring my.
Speaker 4: Tbe switch has a page a dashboard that looks a
Speaker 4: lot like pie Stars because it's created from Andy Taylor's template.
Speaker 1: H Yeah, that's something I always wanted to add to
Speaker 1: my server, but I have not. I didn't get around
Speaker 1: to it before we decided to upgrade it. I wasn't
Speaker 1: going to add it to the old server.
Speaker 3: At some point, you have to have like some type
Speaker 3: of flow chart or some connection list on you know
Speaker 3: what is bridging to what? And I'm sure that in
Speaker 3: the matrix thereof digital modes.
Speaker 4: Somebody has created a loop, you know, well they you know,
Speaker 4: they've created parts of pie star there where you can
Speaker 4: where they can bridge YSF to DMR and vice versa.
Speaker 4: So we have a DMR radio and you want to
Speaker 4: talk on YSF, you can do that through your pie star.
Speaker 4: So you know, I don't know why they wouldn't do
Speaker 4: it otherwise. Okay, right, there is my DV switch dashboard.
Speaker 4: You can see it looks very pi star.
Speaker 3: S oh yeah, looks exactly there, very very familiar.
Speaker 4: Down at the bottom, you got a row of modes
Speaker 4: halfway DMR, YSF, nxdn P and d star and that
Speaker 4: lets you know if your modes are enabled. And then
Speaker 4: the rest of them are the same items, but their
Speaker 4: networks and it's they are in the.
Speaker 2: Green so they're connected to that network.
Speaker 4: But the one that mine is focused on right now
Speaker 4: is actually t G I F, but it's not showing
Speaker 4: it as the master.
Speaker 2: I must have misconfigured that.
Speaker 4: I had a I had a brown out or something
Speaker 4: at the house not too long ago, and my SD
Speaker 4: card cratered. Yeah, so yeah, and I was just like,
Speaker 4: well it worked, but it didn't work a lot of
Speaker 4: stuff got erased.
Speaker 2: A lot of stuff was still there.
Speaker 1: Well, I pull out my.
Speaker 4: Backup off the cloud, rewrite it.
Speaker 2: It don't work either. This is me.
Speaker 4: I got to be able to back up my stuff.
Speaker 4: Which that's one of my latest videos that just came
Speaker 4: out last week is uh it's called can you Back
Speaker 4: that Up?
Speaker 6: But it's exactly because I was like gosh, But ASL
Speaker 6: three has a built in menu for backing up the
Speaker 6: core settings of your node at least, and you can
Speaker 6: expand that to back up a lot of your config
Speaker 6: files for your different modules, TV switch all, yeah, Skyworm
Speaker 6: plus YadA yatta.
Speaker 4: But they will also give you two megabytes of cloud
Speaker 4: space if you want to take your basic config and
Speaker 4: back it up to the cloud and then you can
Speaker 4: pull it down later.
Speaker 2: If your node goes down, you can just pull it down.
Speaker 4: All you do is log in with that node number
Speaker 4: and that node numbers password. You can pull it back down,
Speaker 4: It rewrites, it restarts the node.
Speaker 2: You're back in business.
Speaker 4: Yeah, with the very basics, I took and went beyond
Speaker 4: that and backed up all my config files from my
Speaker 4: other modules. Stink and file was twenty megabytes, so I
Speaker 4: backed it up to my Google drive so I'd have
Speaker 4: extra cloud copies and be able to jump back into
Speaker 4: it again.
Speaker 3: But you know, having a backup doesn't mean jack squatt,
Speaker 3: that's for sure. You have to execute the process of
Speaker 3: restoring to make sure that that backup is good.
Speaker 4: Right exactly. And I'll tell you what it's You've got
Speaker 4: to be diligent.
Speaker 5: I just.
Speaker 3: I think the ARL got a quick ah a spanking
Speaker 3: in that. Whenever you know they had the ransomware, they
Speaker 3: thought they had backups and they didn't.
Speaker 4: Man that you had to be a tough hit right there. Yeah,
Speaker 4: since no go ahead?
Speaker 2: Did you have something to say.
Speaker 3: Me?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: Anybody a bit buelerler.
Speaker 2: Since I retired, I went back to work two days a.
Speaker 4: Week doing it work for our county jail and my boss,
Speaker 4: the systems add man, he got super smart, way younger
Speaker 4: than I am. But we got to talking about ransomware
Speaker 4: and cybersecurity, and the word on the street is it's
Speaker 4: supposed to be it's supposed to increase tenfold in the
Speaker 4: next year and a half.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4: What accused that, other than a lot of the bigger
Speaker 4: corporations are paying the ransom because they don't have off
Speaker 4: site unaffected backups.
Speaker 3: We have at work. I work for healthcare in the
Speaker 3: healthcare industry. We employ about thirty four thousand people in
Speaker 3: the Saint Louis area, and our cybersecurity people that team
Speaker 3: on our IS department. We've got an IS department about
Speaker 3: a thousand people, and that thing has grown from a
Speaker 3: couple of people. I think that there are now close
Speaker 3: to fifty or sixty people on that team. And they
Speaker 3: have this they we call them, we call it the
Speaker 3: monkey cage, and it's it's in the you know, we
Speaker 3: all kind of worked from home and then some some
Speaker 3: people went back to the office, but in the monkey
Speaker 3: cage is where they do all the monitoring, and they've
Speaker 3: got the big screens, you know, and they're shit. They're
Speaker 3: looking at all the the the DEDOS attacks and you know,
Speaker 3: all the things that are coming in. But anyway, to
Speaker 3: your point, they have locked down every single computer in
Speaker 3: the corporation where not only can you not put any
Speaker 3: uh USB port our devices in right, so it has
Speaker 3: to be a recognized device with a signature and blah
Speaker 3: blah blah that that you know that is is on
Speaker 3: their list. But they have now restricted you cannot get
Speaker 3: to only only basically healthcare related sites you can get
Speaker 3: to on the internet. I can't get to my Gmail anymore.
Speaker 3: I can't pull off anything from drive, from Dropbox, and
Speaker 3: I work in a part where we're pulling AutoCAD files
Speaker 3: down from vendors, you know, from our contractors, our architects,
Speaker 3: our engineers, and we can't get to them. So it's
Speaker 3: like this huge thing where we have to they have
Speaker 3: to put it on a server that is that someone.
Speaker 3: Once someone goes and gets that file, it gets on
Speaker 3: a watch list, so then nobody behind them can can
Speaker 3: get to that file. So what will happen is like
Speaker 3: we'll be on a call and somebody will say, hey, Sean,
Speaker 3: go get that file and then distribute it to everyone
Speaker 3: else because after Sean gets that file, no one else
Speaker 3: can go get the file because the proxy server that
Speaker 3: does our web you know, not translation, but our our
Speaker 3: proxy of the web shuts it down automatically. So it
Speaker 3: is it has now become a problem on doing our
Speaker 3: job on a daily basis. But you call them and
Speaker 3: they're just like, go pound sand, we don't care, you know,
Speaker 3: when you're like okay, whatever, yeah, yeah, exactly, you can't
Speaker 3: you can't budge them it's like I have to pull
Speaker 3: this down from my job, and they're just like, say
Speaker 3: what what, I can't hear you, you know, goodbye.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And we're we're trying to do more and more
Speaker 4: of that. Our systems admin is really beefed up our
Speaker 4: security and trying to separate some things. As everything was
Speaker 4: on a kind of a peer to peer kind of
Speaker 4: a thing. But now that he's really tightening it down,
Speaker 4: you can't even like you said, you can't put a
Speaker 4: USB drive or a flash drive in a computer if
Speaker 4: it's not encrypted and make it work, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's how that's how we So if you
Speaker 3: want to share something via USB, you have to go
Speaker 3: to the I department and get in a up to
Speaker 3: drive because you know, they're worried about you downloading something
Speaker 3: from our patient records department, right and and then getting
Speaker 3: out to the internet, you know exactly, which I understand.
Speaker 2: It's due diligence.
Speaker 4: It's all diligence. You're just trying to create or prevent
Speaker 4: a problem.
Speaker 3: And and I understand there's a fine line, right, but
Speaker 3: it's it's it's always like the one thing that you
Speaker 3: want to do to do your job, you know, and
Speaker 3: you're like, Okay, I'm going to take two hours and
Speaker 3: I'm going to do this. I'm going to look over
Speaker 3: these plans. I'm going to go download the plants right now,
Speaker 3: and then that one thing that you want to do
Speaker 3: is always above, right right above the threshold.
Speaker 2: You know, Yes, never stinking fails. Yeah, and we deal.
Speaker 4: We deal with a lot of grants are the jail does,
Speaker 4: and we have to communicate with the FBI a lot
Speaker 4: because we hold a lot of federal inmates. Well, I
Speaker 4: don't know, about eight months ago, we got around of
Speaker 4: those fishy emails. It's like, hey, your paycheck hours have
Speaker 4: been changed or whatever, so click the link and you
Speaker 4: get a virus. And what it did was email something
Speaker 4: right back out on your contacts list, and one of
Speaker 4: them went to the FBI. So cleared everything up, got
Speaker 4: all that taken care of.
Speaker 2: Fast forward to.
Speaker 4: Now we're trying to get emails in from the Feds
Speaker 4: so that we could finish.
Speaker 2: A grant and they won't come through it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we're like, hey, we're you know, we did
Speaker 4: all this back end work, and our our boss did
Speaker 4: outstanding work and figured out, hey, it wasn't us on
Speaker 4: our end anyway.
Speaker 2: But that email all those months.
Speaker 4: Ago put us on a blacklist in their server, and
Speaker 4: they finally found it and cleared it up.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is a huge inconvenience.
Speaker 2: But today's world.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I understand. I mean it's always going to be
Speaker 3: an inconvenience, but finding that line on being able to
Speaker 3: get things done but also being secure. You know, those
Speaker 3: those guys have a tough job. I understand.
Speaker 4: It's but you know, for us is finally getting a
Speaker 4: little bit better now that we're really tightening things down,
Speaker 4: because we're having what we call grass fires. You know,
Speaker 4: you go out and put all these little grass fires.
Speaker 2: My printer won't print or my computer won't come on.
Speaker 4: It's more trivial stuff than anything now, But it's I
Speaker 4: don't know, we're able to track network activity closer now,
Speaker 4: so we know who's using all the bandwidth and we
Speaker 4: get to go yeah yeah, or that problem a lot
Speaker 4: quicker than we used to used to be able to Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, and you know, in my job, whenever you've got
Speaker 3: thirty five thousand users, you know, and you've got twenty
Speaker 3: two thousand computers, you know, and a couple of you know,
Speaker 3: I'm sure that we've probably got you know, I bet
Speaker 3: you we've got fifteen hundred or two thousand switches, you know, yeah,
Speaker 3: just go ninety four to ten switches that are fully populated.
Speaker 3: You know, each one of those switches is about sixty
Speaker 3: grand Oh my god, you've got thousands of them. You know, routers,
Speaker 3: you know, firewalls, proxy servers, you know, VPN concentrators. You know. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it is a hard job, I understand, you know.
Speaker 4: And he's got us up to a point now where
Speaker 4: we can log into other computers securely without well we
Speaker 4: can do it without to meet them even knowing now
Speaker 4: where you know, we were using like team view or
Speaker 4: something like that, and then we went to a geez
Speaker 4: whatever was built into Windows that was huge inconvenience. You
Speaker 4: had to partyp the code I think it was. I
Speaker 4: think it was yeah, rdy P. Nonetheless, he's got it
Speaker 4: lockdown now where we're you know, they're working through dolls
Speaker 4: shells or I.
Speaker 2: Call them dolls shells. I don't know if they're still
Speaker 2: called dolls.
Speaker 4: Shells, PowerShell, PowerShell, Yeah, and can get right into a computer.
Speaker 4: And he's teaching us how to remote in. And one
Speaker 4: of my co workers is like, okay, I'm going to
Speaker 4: remote into uh one of these computers where the deos
Speaker 4: normally sit and brings up their screen and they're watching Netflix.
Speaker 1: Like busted. No, not so much, not so much, no more.
Speaker 4: It's like, come on, guys, help us out, help us
Speaker 4: help you well.
Speaker 3: And then also to make things even worse is not
Speaker 3: only do we have this big, huge, robust network that
Speaker 3: we're trying to keep secure, but then we have I
Speaker 3: mean it's not that big of a deal, but we
Speaker 3: have a guest wireless right so whenever you come into
Speaker 3: the hospital and your your wife just had a baby,
Speaker 3: you want to make sure that you get all those
Speaker 3: baby pictures on all the social media servers. So not
Speaker 3: only do you have to like, you know, be secure
Speaker 3: on your private network, but you have to be somewhat
Speaker 3: you know, restrictive on your guest network that anybody can
Speaker 3: connect to as long as they've got a connected that
Speaker 3: you know, can you know say oh yeah, I'm not
Speaker 3: going to do anything illegal, you know, sure, click, Okay.
Speaker 4: It was at a hospital, right, yeah, when my wife
Speaker 4: had the surgery the other day, you know, years gone
Speaker 4: by Wi fi free wi Fi in the hospitals.
Speaker 2: Wasn't a murder. It was just a nightmare. It was slow.
Speaker 2: You don't tell anything. Yeah, it's just it's horrible.
Speaker 4: But and I got a shout out to uh St
Speaker 4: Francis Health System in tuls Oklahoma.
Speaker 2: They they got it worked out. I could.
Speaker 4: You know, there's a few things that I couldn't get
Speaker 4: to and it was probably more closer to work stuff.
Speaker 4: But you know, you get to Facebook, you can get
Speaker 4: the Twitter or whatever, and well more importantly for me, YouTube,
Speaker 4: I was able to access YouTube on a hospital network.
Speaker 2: I was just elated.
Speaker 4: It passed time away, but yeah, they got.
Speaker 1: It going on.
Speaker 2: Finally they got it. They got a little speed to it.
Speaker 4: It wasn't super, it wasn't perfect, but it's way better
Speaker 4: than it's been in the past years.
Speaker 3: Good and not heaven, Yeah, that we have a problem
Speaker 3: with speed. After about six pm, people go and you know,
Speaker 3: visit their loved ones and then the so in every
Speaker 3: hospital we have two ten gig links that you know
Speaker 3: go back to corporate right into our data center and
Speaker 3: then I believe into every single hospital where there are
Speaker 3: wireless controllers that you know, have all of the guest
Speaker 3: wireless that is v land off and then that goes
Speaker 3: you know, back to corporate and then goes out the
Speaker 3: big pipe. I think it's I think it's fifty gigabit
Speaker 3: that goes out just for just for guest wireless. Okay,
Speaker 3: so there's sixteen hospitals. It all gets piped to one
Speaker 3: of our data centers fifty gig out. But we still
Speaker 3: have boundwidth issues because there are you know, at any
Speaker 3: one time, there's like twenty thousand people fifteen to twenty
Speaker 3: thousand people connected to the guest wireless, so you know
Speaker 3: including you know, whenever I walk into the hospital, I
Speaker 3: don't have a a work issued phone, so I get
Speaker 3: on the guest wireless with my personal phone here, right,
Speaker 3: So you know, you think all those employees that are working,
Speaker 3: plus all of the people that are in there visiting
Speaker 3: loved ones and all the patients, they all have a
Speaker 3: connected device. You know, it's just a lot of devices.
Speaker 4: And they're all streaming video, yeah, right right, and they're
Speaker 4: all getting on Netflix at seven pm.
Speaker 3: Yes, they are trying to watch you know, the Tyson
Speaker 3: fight and uh.
Speaker 4: You know, Mike Tyson's fifty eight years old and he's
Speaker 4: still faster Netflix's servers.
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right, man, talk about talk about the
Speaker 3: buffering Circle of Death on Saturday.
Speaker 1: I was so mad.
Speaker 4: Finally get to the fight and yeah and it FROs.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, this is this is my life. This
Speaker 2: is what it is. Yeah, circle of death.
Speaker 1: Dude, all right, so this is uh, this is not
Speaker 1: this is not working. So there's there's not a way
Speaker 1: in here that I've found to upgrade a current instance.
Speaker 1: I wonder if I could do it that way. So
Speaker 1: I deleted and recreated the instance twice, no, two or
Speaker 1: three times with WAN twelve, spun up a whole new
Speaker 1: instance a WAN twelve with the authentication key, and I
Speaker 1: keep getting there that the that the server is refusing
Speaker 1: my authentication key. I created a brand new authentication key.
Speaker 1: I tried to use my old one, which I'm using
Speaker 1: my old one on the old server works fine. I'm
Speaker 1: logged into the old server right now via putty ssh
Speaker 1: and so I use that same key. I use that
Speaker 1: same key to log into my c Bridge server works fine.
Speaker 1: So I tried to use that same key, I get
Speaker 1: the authentication error. I created a brand new key on
Speaker 1: dream host. They I have instructions from their help pages,
Speaker 1: and uh, try to do that same error. So I
Speaker 1: emailed them just now and said this doesn't work anymore.
Speaker 1: Uh but yeah it's not. Uhh, I don't know what's
Speaker 1: what's We've tried this more than one time, Freddy.
Speaker 4: Well, your your backup server on my cloud is still going.
Speaker 1: Oh is it really okay? Well I left it up.
Speaker 4: I left it up just in case something, just in case.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's fine. I mean the the the original
Speaker 1: server that's been running for a long time is still running.
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's right here, so right now, several
Speaker 1: people connected to it since we started this evening. So yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely still running. But uh, I don't know, man, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this has been this is uh, this is check s
Speaker 1: s H key for your user, for my user. I
Speaker 1: don't think that that.
Speaker 3: Randy just put something on the.
Speaker 1: Chat log in with user name password. Okay, So I
Speaker 1: can't log in at all, So I can't run any
Speaker 1: SSH commands because I can't access it via s s H.
Speaker 1: So that's out. The problem is I can't log in,
Speaker 1: so I can't log in and run any commands to
Speaker 1: check my key.
Speaker 4: There's a service offer you a like a web.
Speaker 1: Time does Yeah, I do have that. Let's see. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I try that it's going to give me the same error.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure, but let's try let's let's try this
Speaker 1: and see. Yeah, there's a web console here right there. Okay,
Speaker 1: and ask me for a password. Well, I don't know
Speaker 1: what the password is because it tells me that they don't.
Speaker 1: They don't. Let me just try Debian for the assword. Also, no, see,
Speaker 1: I don't know what the the default login is for it.
Speaker 1: That's the problem.
Speaker 2: Your dream host passport.
Speaker 4: Nope, I don't know dream host that well, yeah, idiosyncrasies.
Speaker 1: But right, yeah, let's see.
Speaker 5: Uh yeah.
Speaker 4: In addition to my my all Star link hub server
Speaker 4: which is running on that a commy Linode cloud server,
Speaker 4: I added an instance the other day and did a
Speaker 4: y reflector.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah really nice.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, because I got my y reflector linked to
Speaker 4: a dv switch standalone server which bridges y SF to
Speaker 4: my DMR talk group, and then when they go across
Speaker 4: over to DMR comes over my all.
Speaker 2: Star link note. So it's kind of a triple threat.
Speaker 2: It's just, you know, it's kind of gimmicky.
Speaker 4: But if somebody's a DMR user and they want to
Speaker 4: talk to me on all Star, they can, you know,
Speaker 4: it sure might do a.
Speaker 2: Lot of but it's there, yep, yep.
Speaker 4: But in our state wide DMR group, their DMR Society
Speaker 4: are all of our repeaters are linked over Arden and
Speaker 4: we use them a lot for sky warns, you know,
Speaker 4: state wide sky warn but you know the other talk
Speaker 4: groups are there as well, statewide, nationwide things like that,
Speaker 4: and they work really really well.
Speaker 1: Uh Randy, leaving the password blank is the first thing
Speaker 1: I tried. I've tried that two or three times, just
Speaker 1: leaving uh just pressing enter instead of entering a pass. Yes,
Speaker 1: my firewalls opened for my home IPJ That that was
Speaker 1: a hurdle I jumped to earlier. No problem, there is
Speaker 1: that an all star image. No, that's this is Debian
Speaker 1: twelve is what this is.
Speaker 4: You just download it through w get to install it
Speaker 4: that way, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep.
Speaker 4: I've got an instance running at home on a PC.
Speaker 4: I took an ol Lenovo one of those mini PCs
Speaker 4: and put DEB twelve on it, and I've got an
Speaker 4: ASL node ASL three node running off of it right
Speaker 4: now that I'm just kind of tinkering with. I kind
Speaker 4: of use it for a sandbox.
Speaker 1: Nice. Yeah, good.
Speaker 4: That's not a bunch of new scripts with oh, I
Speaker 4: have a GitHub page.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: It's nothing like the fancy people who actually know what
Speaker 4: they're doing.
Speaker 2: But I'm developing some scripts.
Speaker 4: I've developing one so if you've got a new instance
Speaker 4: of an all Star link three on a pile or
Speaker 4: even a PC, this one script will install skyworn plus
Speaker 4: all scan.
Speaker 2: See Superman.
Speaker 4: And there's one other dead gimmick. But if you go
Speaker 4: to gethub dot com slash ktfive FMU, you'll see my
Speaker 4: GitHub page. Nice, I tell you what this is really
Speaker 4: coming in handy because you know, I knew I was
Speaker 4: getting a lot of the apps installed through GitHub commands,
Speaker 4: you know, w get through GitHub, and it made it
Speaker 4: a lot easier where I was taking my scripts and
Speaker 4: transferring them over on an s FTP stas through like
Speaker 4: win SCP or file Zilla something like that, and just
Speaker 4: doing it by command line ten times faster, way easier.
Speaker 4: And I get to share it with everybody as much
Speaker 4: as possible. And I've got people chiming in and say, hey,
Speaker 4: you need to do a little tweak here or do
Speaker 4: a little tweak there and make it right, and it's perfect.
Speaker 1: It is a fresh install of Debian fresh install of
Speaker 1: Debian twelve. The username is Debian it is a uh,
Speaker 1: it is a dream host server, a virtual private server
Speaker 1: with Wan twelve installed.
Speaker 2: Okay, so.
Speaker 3: I don't know, just quick Google. It didn't ask you
Speaker 3: for the password for root whenever you are creating the server.
Speaker 1: No, because you don't log into it with root. Do
Speaker 1: you log into it with the username of Debian, which
Speaker 1: has super user access. You just have SU and you
Speaker 1: can set your super user password once you log inage
Speaker 1: as the default user, which is Debian.
Speaker 4: Okay, they've got their image set up that way.
Speaker 1: Kind of yeah, so these are good. These are good.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Don Yes, it uses sh key pairs. That's what I've
Speaker 1: been tinkering with for the last thirty to forty five minutes.
Speaker 1: You guys, are you guys? All of the these ideas
Speaker 1: in the chat are good ideas, but the stuff I've
Speaker 1: either already done or it doesn't apply to this specific
Speaker 1: virtual server, or at least everything I've read so far. Yep,
Speaker 1: we're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna slay this dragon, Freddy.
Speaker 1: We are we might we not might not do it tonight,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna get this done. I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 1: it's personal. Now, it is personal now. I mean, the
Speaker 1: thing is pretty much every time I've been into this
Speaker 1: dream hope, this dream compute virtual private server. Once I
Speaker 1: figure out what to do, I'm like, oh, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: so I'm in here now, and then I don't log
Speaker 1: into it again for like twelve to eighteen months, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't remember what the hell I did
Speaker 1: last time I was in here. I was like, you know,
Speaker 1: So it's just it's not something you use every day exactly,
Speaker 1: and that's the problem. That's problem. It's not something you
Speaker 1: use every day, so I can't remember where stuff is.
Speaker 1: And they've got weird, weird names like they've had. They
Speaker 1: have images, volumes and instances. Well, to me, a volume
Speaker 1: and an instance is the same thing, I would think, so,
Speaker 1: or an instance in a partition is the same thing.
Speaker 1: So so you can add instances to your volume, and
Speaker 1: I guess you can add more than one. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but it's I don't know. It's it's very it's some
Speaker 1: of the terminology can be like ambiguous, and you've got
Speaker 1: to learn their language as yeah, yeah, that's right, yeah.
Speaker 4: Which you know what I tell you what I do
Speaker 4: every time I make a video or every time I
Speaker 4: learn something new from someone else, which that's ninety percent
Speaker 4: of my journey. I've got a ton of notes in
Speaker 4: Google Drive. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, and I share that
Speaker 4: folder with two or three others because number one I
Speaker 4: need backups and number two yeah, may have a better way.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So I'm constantly taking notes, especially especially with my drive.
Speaker 2: My whole no ode crash the other day.
Speaker 4: It was like, no, ouch, how do I do this again?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, notes, looking up notes, but keeps you sharp.
Speaker 1: Right, true? Yeah, true? True? So all right, well, I've
Speaker 1: tried it with both authentication keys. I've tried creating a
Speaker 1: new authentication key and uh hold on, keep pairs using
Speaker 1: my default authentication key, which I have right here on
Speaker 1: this computer and works for my old instance and where
Speaker 1: this this old server is still running there, it is
Speaker 1: right there.
Speaker 4: And you've got an s s H key that works
Speaker 4: on your on your ASL server and your uh your
Speaker 4: DMR server right.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, I yeah, I added the same key. So
Speaker 1: you use putty gen to create a well, no, you
Speaker 1: download a key and a dot p em file from
Speaker 1: dream host, and you put that key into putty gen
Speaker 1: and putty gen updates it to a PPK file. Okay,
Speaker 1: and then you load that PPK file into regular putty
Speaker 1: and put in your IP and port ports twenty two
Speaker 1: like it normally is, put in the static IP in
Speaker 1: the port twenty two, and you click connect and it
Speaker 1: brings up the log in window and you type Debian
Speaker 1: hit enter and it should log you in. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's that's what it does with if I want to
Speaker 1: do let's see I can, I can. I can show
Speaker 1: you exactly what I'm talking about, and we will go
Speaker 1: here where is corrent there?
Speaker 4: It is?
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So this is my Putty window here,
Speaker 1: and this is my current one that I've had loaded
Speaker 1: for a long time, and down here under authentication, I
Speaker 1: have this key added to the server path right here, right,
Speaker 1: so I'll go here open now can you guys see that?
Speaker 1: You guys can't see that?
Speaker 2: Can you.
Speaker 3: Putty?
Speaker 1: Okay? Right there? All right? Now I go Debian boom,
Speaker 1: I'm logged in, no password and it says right there,
Speaker 1: Debian nine nine out two is what this is. So
Speaker 1: this is the current server that the ASL one dot
Speaker 1: one has been running on for the last two years.
Speaker 1: So I try to repeat those steps with the new
Speaker 1: server running Debian twelve. And there's obviously been some changes
Speaker 1: of some sort something.
Speaker 4: Ongan's not linking those s shps, right, Yeah, it seems
Speaker 4: like it.
Speaker 1: It seems like for whatever, because I go to their
Speaker 1: help pages, and their help pages was updated in March
Speaker 1: of this year, according to the notes at the bottom.
Speaker 1: So even though I've I used this process two years
Speaker 1: ago for this server, the notes on the page say
Speaker 1: it's still active as of March of this year. So
Speaker 1: and it's saying the same thing. It says, go here,
Speaker 1: It's exactly what I just told you. Go to the
Speaker 1: dream host, create new keypair, download that as a PEM file,
Speaker 1: load it into Putty. Gin change this parameter, which I did.
Speaker 1: I did it twice to make sure I didn't foo
Speaker 1: bar it. Change this parameter, hit save as a PPK file,
Speaker 1: Load that PPK file into Putty, put in your IP address,
Speaker 1: and hit enter, and you should get to where you're
Speaker 1: seeing on the screen right now. I did that twice
Speaker 1: with two different keys, and same error both times. And
Speaker 1: it says down at the bottom of that help page.
Speaker 1: If you get this error, it means you chose the
Speaker 1: wrong parameter. You're supposed to go in and choose level
Speaker 1: two instead of level three. At the falls to level three,
Speaker 1: I think. So I'm like, okay, I chose level two
Speaker 1: the first time, but let me do it again. So
Speaker 1: I did it twice, chose level two both times, same error,
Speaker 1: and they say, no, that era means you chose level three.
Speaker 1: No I didn't. So yeah, so that's the email I
Speaker 1: just sent them a minute ago.
Speaker 2: That's their snafoo.
Speaker 4: Sounds like to me, h, yeah, it might be.
Speaker 1: It might be something I'm missing. I mean, I'm perfectly
Speaker 1: willing to admit that, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: Well, if their instructions aren't updated in the right something correct.
Speaker 3: See what Jody put in the chat there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe attach your public key while the cloud server
Speaker 1: is powered down. Maybe it doesn't take effect of the
Speaker 1: servers running.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: No, so okay, So what I did was I deleted
Speaker 1: the instance completely. I did this like three or four times.
Speaker 1: I deleted the instance completely and created a new W
Speaker 1: and twelve instance. And when you go through the steps
Speaker 1: to create the instance, adding the key pair to that
Speaker 1: instance before it's even created as part of the process.
Speaker 1: So I tried that at least three times, once once
Speaker 1: with an old key, once with the new key, once
Speaker 1: with the rebuilt new key, and same error every time.
Speaker 1: So yes, good, good call, Jody. But I'm not adding
Speaker 1: it while it's running. I'm adding it before it's being well,
Speaker 1: I'm telling it how to build it because it lets
Speaker 1: you choose the volume size, It lets you choose the ram,
Speaker 1: It lets you choose which which serve which vp I've
Speaker 1: got a choice of like six or seven VPSs which
Speaker 1: to put it on, and you know whatever, I just
Speaker 1: kind of pick one.
Speaker 4: But oh, Steven Johnson put up he put up a
Speaker 4: good comment there. The primary difference in the ssh key
Speaker 4: formats between W nine and twelve lies in the supported algorithms.
Speaker 4: Maybe in twelve has dropped support for some older algorithms
Speaker 4: in favor of more secure and modern ones.
Speaker 2: That's a possibility, right there.
Speaker 4: I have don't have a lot of experience with generating
Speaker 4: SSH keys.
Speaker 2: I always have to go for.
Speaker 1: Help with that, right yeah, same here. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: remember it because I've done it several times on this
Speaker 1: but again it's always one to two years in between
Speaker 1: each time I do.
Speaker 2: It, so exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe it is on the back end.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's where my money is at right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, people do they.
Speaker 3: How fast do they usually get back to you.
Speaker 1: It'll be the the cloud server supports only during the week,
Speaker 1: so it'll be the more gotcha. It won't be today, unfortunately.
Speaker 3: But you have broken the Internet.
Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah, Well, swing and miss strike two for
Speaker 1: the ASO three upgrade. But you know what I don't.
Speaker 1: I had a guy that was gonna come on next week,
Speaker 1: and I don't think he's gonna be able to make it,
Speaker 1: so we have to push him off a couple weeks.
Speaker 1: So fingers crossed, let me do some research on this.
Speaker 1: This week, I'm gonna get with dream dream host support.
Speaker 1: Dream host support is actually quite good. They're you're not
Speaker 1: gonna get real time support with them, but when you
Speaker 1: email them, their replies are very accurate and hopeful nine
Speaker 1: percent of the time. So I've had some good responses
Speaker 1: from them in the past when I've had questions. So
Speaker 1: and then once they reply that first time, they said,
Speaker 1: we'll try this, try this, and I tried this, here's
Speaker 1: what I get. And you send a reply back. They'll
Speaker 1: usually reply back to you pretty quickly, like same day,
Speaker 1: an hour or two something like that. So it might
Speaker 1: take him a day to get to the first reply,
Speaker 1: but once you start the communication with them. They're they're
Speaker 1: pretty quick on that.
Speaker 2: It's pretty good. I'd imagine, yeah, far out. Well, like
Speaker 2: you said, we're going to slay this dragon, We're going
Speaker 2: to slay the dragon.
Speaker 1: Brian. Brian's asking, are you sure the Putty setup you're
Speaker 1: using has this right username to match the s s
Speaker 1: H certificate. Uh, well, you never put a username into
Speaker 1: the Putty setup, So I'm not sure. I understand where
Speaker 1: you're talking about. But I put.
Speaker 2: An endo says into Putty.
Speaker 4: But I'm not using s s H case because I'm
Speaker 4: using oddball ports.
Speaker 1: But let's see, let's pull up Putty again. I want
Speaker 1: to look and see if there's a username.
Speaker 4: Uh well, let me think about that a second now.
Speaker 1: So if you if you have, let me pull this
Speaker 1: up here. All right, let me go this one. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna turn that off. Okay, how's that. That's a
Speaker 1: little bit better. So on this window right here, you
Speaker 1: have session, which is your host name or IP address
Speaker 1: in port twenty two, which is default choosing SSH. These
Speaker 1: are my saved sessions here, So I don't have a
Speaker 1: thing for you. Where you talking about for.
Speaker 4: Username, I'm not I'm wrong because I always put the
Speaker 4: user name in passport in once the connection is established, right,
Speaker 4: I mean that's the problem. That's where you do it
Speaker 4: now unless you have SSH keys and then bone you'll
Speaker 4: past that straight to right.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So there might be a way to set a
Speaker 1: default user name in here, but I'm not. I'm not
Speaker 1: even setting that because I'm having to type the user
Speaker 1: name in when when I come up.
Speaker 4: So makes sense. I switch back and forth between Windows
Speaker 4: and Mac so much. I'm getting my my SSH clients
Speaker 4: messed up because my oh Mac is I save the
Speaker 4: usual name of the passwords and that and just double
Speaker 4: click on it and I'm.
Speaker 1: In, oh yeah, yeah. So then yeah, well, Jason doing
Speaker 1: this live is courageous. Not really, I screw up all
Speaker 1: the time. I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: So.
Speaker 1: M but I logged in earlier today and I got
Speaker 1: the I got the lug because the last time we
Speaker 1: couldn't get the password reset to work, so I couldn't
Speaker 1: even log into the back end of dream host, or well,
Speaker 1: I couldn't log into the back end VPS side of
Speaker 1: dream host. But so I hit up Kyle and so
Speaker 1: I logged in this morning. I was able to create
Speaker 1: a new instance. I did de wi and ten set
Speaker 1: of twelve, which I've now corrected. But uh. And then
Speaker 1: I hit up Kyle and Freddie and I'm like, hey,
Speaker 1: let's do this tonight. And they're both like, okay, thanks
Speaker 1: guys for being so uh so, uh respond it to
Speaker 1: a short term uh request like that, but if you're
Speaker 1: both available next Sunday, let's try this again next Sunday,
Speaker 1: because uh, because I will get this. I already sent
Speaker 1: an email to to dream host support, and like I said,
Speaker 1: they won't password equals pickle whiskey. That's fine, No, it's
Speaker 1: j ktie two rp X. That's funny, that's awesome. But
Speaker 1: uh yeah, so we'll hopefully I'll get a reply from
Speaker 1: them tomorrow. And and it's it's gonna be something stupid.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be something stupid. They're like, oh, you didn't
Speaker 1: check this box, crap whatever, And I go in there
Speaker 1: and it works, it's gonna Usually usually it's something like that.
Speaker 1: Usually it's something that like I missed or I read
Speaker 1: wrong or something like that.
Speaker 2: I don't know my life man storyline. Oh yeah, way.
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. Anyway, y'all were talking about setting up
Speaker 1: all star nodes earlier. I was digging through. So I
Speaker 1: was cleaning out a couple of boxes. Last Oh, well,
Speaker 1: I was looking for some Raspberry Pie stuff because I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be building a a cyber deck lot, which is
Speaker 1: just which is just a fancy new term for a
Speaker 1: freaking computer that has a big hard drive with a
Speaker 1: bunch of stuff on it so you don't have to
Speaker 1: connect through the internet. I mean, it's just yeah, it's
Speaker 1: some kind of a gnass. You're gonna You're gonna build
Speaker 1: a nass. Yeah, yeah, something like that or less. But uh,
Speaker 1: but I want to do it with seventy three Linux
Speaker 1: with a c k's image because it's got it's got
Speaker 1: all of the uh, it's got all of the things
Speaker 1: on it. And so I was digging through because I
Speaker 1: know I got a Raspberry Pie for somewhere and and
Speaker 1: I think that's the pie that I'm actually running in
Speaker 1: my truck right now for my for my mole all
Speaker 1: Star node. So I was poking around digging. I've got
Speaker 1: a bag with a bunch of Raspberry Pie stuff, and
Speaker 1: I got three pie three b boards that I've never opened,
Speaker 1: some cases and whatnot. So I was poking around in
Speaker 1: there and I found my second Remalenko device, which I
Speaker 1: knew I had one. So because of Remalenko device. You
Speaker 1: know what that is, Freddy?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because Max tracks.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay. So there's a radio right there you can't
Speaker 1: see right now. That's the uh the a Linko two
Speaker 1: twenty mono band that's got a Remalenko device on it.
Speaker 1: And when I bought that Remalenko device, I bought two
Speaker 1: of them, so I bought a set. So I got
Speaker 1: a Secon one brand new. It has never been hooked
Speaker 1: up before, and I found it the other day. I'm like, ah, yes,
Speaker 1: now I can use that because I have a Now
Speaker 1: let me ask you that guys that uh wait a minute, No,
Speaker 1: that was for something else. Well, let me ask you
Speaker 1: this anyway. Uh you know this stuff confused. Have either
Speaker 1: of you ever built an eyegate?
Speaker 3: Yes, one at my house? Yeah, I have. I've got
Speaker 3: one in my house too.
Speaker 1: What radio are you using?
Speaker 4: Oh geez, I have to get the model. But it's
Speaker 4: a YESU monobander.
Speaker 3: I run mine on a ty T.
Speaker 1: The ninety oh the nine thousand. Yeah, yeah, okay, that's
Speaker 1: what is. So I got a I picked up like
Speaker 1: a year ago. In fact, it was at the ardmore
Speaker 1: ham Fist Freddy.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there.
Speaker 1: I picked up a cherry looking almost brand new uh
Speaker 1: the d R one thirty five, the two meter mono
Speaker 1: band ALNKO yes radio, and I thought I want to
Speaker 1: put that. I want to put an ee gate in
Speaker 1: the truck. Oh yeah. I've been wanting to put an
Speaker 1: iGATE in my truck for a couple of years now.
Speaker 1: I talked to a c K about it and he's like,
Speaker 1: you mean a digipeter. I'm like, no, an I gate.
Speaker 1: He's like, you need internet for an iGATE. I'm like,
Speaker 1: my truck has internet. That's not a problem. He's like,
Speaker 1: oh okay, yeah, So I want something that says, hey,
Speaker 1: send this APR S signal that you just received to
Speaker 1: the Internet. And that's what I want. So I want
Speaker 1: a mobile eye gate.
Speaker 4: It'll probably do both I gate digit pede.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, min yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that that makes sense. That makes sense, sure, yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So so if you guys know how to do that,
Speaker 1: that's another project I want to work on. I've talked
Speaker 1: to Jason about it a couple of times and he's
Speaker 1: given me some advice, which is always good, but he's
Speaker 1: just he's a little over my head and I'm like,
Speaker 1: let's just freaking get on a live stream with some
Speaker 1: cameras and do this. So and I think he's still
Speaker 1: doing his with dire Wolf. I think, although I or yak, yeah,
Speaker 1: but I think all of that stuff is built into
Speaker 1: his his image. He'scot because he doesn't do build a
Speaker 1: pie anymore. It's all seventy three Linux now. I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: if you go just get hope. His get hub page
Speaker 1: says that ham Pie is kind of like transitioned to
Speaker 1: seventy three. Everything's seventy three Linux now.
Speaker 3: I use a program called a p r X. It's
Speaker 3: that yeah, very simple. It was programmed by this guy
Speaker 3: by the name of Ken. What's Ken's last name. He
Speaker 3: did it as a as a a research paper in
Speaker 3: his I don't know, you know, thesis. Sure, and he
Speaker 3: created a pr X and it's very easy, like it's
Speaker 3: it's like ten lines of configuration and you're up and running.
Speaker 4: Oh wow. I have heard good things about it. I
Speaker 4: just keep forgetting to.
Speaker 2: Go back to it.
Speaker 3: Yep. It's easy to install apr X.
Speaker 1: Ap apr X Okay, yep, all right, I'm sure there's
Speaker 1: numerous ways to do it. And I like the fact
Speaker 1: that I like the fact that the Linko radio and
Speaker 1: I probably won't I'll probably run into like mid power.
Speaker 1: I thought. I thought I wanted to get one in
Speaker 1: the truck. There's like fifty Wyes, I'll run a fifty
Speaker 1: watt eye gate, so we're just you know, booming everywhere,
Speaker 1: and that's fine. But I've also got you know, I'm
Speaker 1: Beacon an APRS and most of the time that one's
Speaker 1: on fifty wats, We've got five other radios in the truck.
Speaker 1: I was like, maybe I'll run the iGATE on like
Speaker 1: a like a half power twenty twenty five watts.
Speaker 2: And it'll it'll do really good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think it will.
Speaker 2: I think I mean on like ten watts at home.
Speaker 1: Honestly, if it's if all I'm doing is igating with it,
Speaker 1: then all it needs to do is receive a signal
Speaker 1: and send it to the Internet. So I could probably
Speaker 1: run it on one WAT and it would do all that.
Speaker 1: But if you're talking about digipeding, it's probably gonna be
Speaker 1: a little bit more effective.
Speaker 4: Well, if it loses its Internet connection, and it will
Speaker 4: figure that out. If it does, it'll just, yeah, it'll
Speaker 4: start digitpeeding.
Speaker 2: It'll just out right right let's send.
Speaker 1: It right right exactly. So so if yeah, so I'd
Speaker 1: like to do that on a live stream upcoming sometime
Speaker 1: because I've got I've got that, I've got the I
Speaker 1: can use my second rem a Lenko device for that.
Speaker 1: Somebody said I think, uh, Tim, and the chat was
Speaker 1: talking about a Digi pie image on a Raspberry Pie.
Speaker 2: Yes, I want to build one of those.
Speaker 1: That might be something to try. And like I said,
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's many ways to do it. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: I mean, you know you can do it. You can
Speaker 1: do it cheap cheap on the on the down low
Speaker 1: and simple, or you can probably get a little bit
Speaker 1: more driving it with it. So I don't know, I
Speaker 1: don't know which one's better, but if it's like anything
Speaker 1: else we do, we'll probably build one and put it
Speaker 1: together and say, hey, this is great, but I wish
Speaker 1: it did this. Oh, let's switch it and do the
Speaker 1: whole thing again, and you know, just like oh there's
Speaker 1: something new now, oh three point oh came out. Let's
Speaker 1: switch that, you know, so it's all scan. Nobody uses
Speaker 1: all mind anywhere. Let's use all scan, you know that
Speaker 1: kind of thing.
Speaker 4: So so radio right there, my prayer right exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well that's for sure. Hey, I vouch.
Speaker 3: I'm going through the chat here. And the only reason
Speaker 3: why I mentioned this is because I had issues with
Speaker 3: Putty at home trying to get into my remote serve.
Speaker 3: Are my remote station and where we run node red.
Speaker 3: What version of Putty are you using? Can you go
Speaker 3: into the version of Putty and tell me which one
Speaker 3: you're using?
Speaker 1: Yeah, one second, it's probably old. I've had it forever.
Speaker 3: Because what happened was I was not able to get
Speaker 3: into my pies and then whenever I updated to the
Speaker 3: latest release, everything was solved.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, Mine says. The release is zero point seventy
Speaker 4: to nine.
Speaker 1: Okay, where you see in the version number as.
Speaker 4: The about button on the mainscreen, because point eight two.
Speaker 3: Is out now.
Speaker 1: Point seven to two is what I have.
Speaker 2: You're old or not, and there's an eighty two.
Speaker 3: So just for just for poops and giggles, why don't
Speaker 3: you upgrade your version of Putty and just try it.
Speaker 1: Let's see download Putty okay.
Speaker 3: Just just to see what happens.
Speaker 5: Install it.
Speaker 1: See, I'm using a I'm using a pocket version. Its
Speaker 1: just it doesn't even install anything.
Speaker 2: It's just standalone okay.
Speaker 3: Because I was I was not able to get into
Speaker 3: my pies. It was saying the authentication keys were incorrect,
Speaker 3: and I'm like, what is going on? And then I
Speaker 3: I updated? I was, I was, you know, researching on
Speaker 3: the web, and they're just like, oh, upgrade your version
Speaker 3: of Putty. Sure enough, I upgraded version of Putty and
Speaker 3: it it worked.
Speaker 4: And that wouldn't make sense now that you say.
Speaker 3: That, yes, I don't know it, might as well try it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's let's try it and see. Uh, Steven, would
Speaker 1: it be okay if I come onto the stream and
Speaker 1: ask some DV switch related questions? Come onto the stream?
Speaker 1: You mean in chat or do you mean in zoom?
Speaker 1: But yes, you can ask. Yeah, ask us any questions
Speaker 1: you want to. Though, it doesn't matter. Let's see sure
Speaker 1: why not?
Speaker 2: I'm up dating mind too.
Speaker 3: Now everyone around the world who is watching the stream
Speaker 3: is updating their Putty, right, They're like.
Speaker 4: Our servers are crashing.
Speaker 3: Yeah right, yeah, we had a searge and Putty downloads.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: Brian saying Putty seven to two is ancient, ancient?
Speaker 1: It probably is. I'm't updated a long time.
Speaker 3: Like the Pharaoh's ancient, like like the Pyramids.
Speaker 1: Agent you know what, every time I use Putty it works,
Speaker 1: and unlike Windows, it doesn't give me dumb ass messages
Speaker 1: all the time. So you need to update so you know,
Speaker 1: so it doesn't try to do that to me. But okay,
Speaker 1: so about.
Speaker 3: Don I like mobile x term too, But.
Speaker 1: I used mobile x term at one of my last jobs.
Speaker 1: That was good. I liked it as well.
Speaker 3: I just always have gravitated back towards Putty. I just yeah,
Speaker 3: my reason.
Speaker 1: All right, So where is.
Speaker 2: Cheekers Hoddy.
Speaker 3: Gray Man Poda?
Speaker 1: And what's he saying? Now? Okay? So eight two? All right,
Speaker 1: so let's let's try this.
