ircDDGateway Commands

Post by aa9vi »

Does anyone know or have a source that details the ircDDBGateway command syntax? I have 2 repeaters that route through my pi-star gateway. I'd like to set up cron jobs for connections but I only know how to do this for the repeater connected directly to the pi-star.

So, If I have DStar module B running on the pi star which with the ircDDBGateway, one would use this syntax in the cron
* 19 * * 4 sudo pistar-link xrf002_a

But, what if I wanted to control a Dummy "D" module running on another linux box using mmdvm? What would I do? Is there a module specific designator for linking also?

Here is part of the answer:
https://www.f4fxl.org/pi-star-schedulin ... unlinking/

Syntax like this:
55 19 * * 1 root remotecontrold f4fxl__b link never dcs933_r

I tried that in the cron utility on pi-star and that does not work. I tried the full path of /usr/local/bin/remotecontrold and that doesn't work either.
Then I tried going in to sudo su - and then executing the command beginning with remotecontrold and it does work.

The next question is why doesn't the cron job work? It works for other jobs in that file just fine.
