12 Positive User Reviews for Node Remote for ALLSTAR
Works perfectly.
Configure manager.conf as described and forward the port (5038, unless you changed it) and you can access your node over LTE also. Perfect app. To edit/customize the quickdial buttons, just hold your finger on them for a few seconds..
Works great
So nice being able to visually see what’s going on at a glance... as well as change nodes, quick disconnect and reconnect and user defined commands are awesome...
Nice but only see one linked node
Works as far as having quick interface to control your node. The information that is given about the node is very limited though. If you have multiple connections it only shows one.
Cool, and fix for astdb.txt not found
Well this is a mighty useful little app! Worth a donation for sure. For those hitting the issue where the app can't find astdb.txt, the app expects it to be in /var/www/html/allmon2 ... best to link it with "ln -s /var/log/asterisk/astdb.txt /var/www/html/allmon2/astdb.txt
A Great Utility for AllStar
My Linux skills are pretty rusty these days so it took a little studying to get me to the items I needed to add and change in manager.conf. Once I did that in Asterisk it connected immediately. Saves on a lot of dtmf button pushing !
Excellent App
This app works great with my SHARI node. It is much more convenient than using DTMF.
You will need to access the file system of your node and make a couple changes, so If you’re not comfortable editing the files, get a friend to help. Otherwise, there are tutorials online.
Request
Love the app as it does what I need it to. One request would be to have multiple pages for additional connection options. There are many nodes and hubs I’d like to be able to quickly access. Other than that, great work!!!
Works with ASL3
Great app to control your AllStarNode. In version 3 you need to add a firewall exception. Add astmgr service in the firewall settings to open port 5038.
can only manage one connection on a node at a time
After connecting to the node to manage, and making a connection from the managed node, causes the managed node to drop all other prior connections. fail
Here is the fix to “can’t find astdb.txt” (Credit goes to AeroD(in the reviews)
As AeroD states, the app is coded to look for the file in /var/www/html/allmon2/
So what you do is create a symbolic link to it. In my case I created the Allmon2 directory with the capital A so the app could not find it.
I created /var/www/html/allmon2/ and linked the astdb.txt file from the Allmon2 directory. This is the only thing that there is in this recently created directory.
Problem solved. Developer lost 1 star because he never replied to my question, which was: where is the app looki
Wasted my $4.99
This only works if your device is on the same network as your node. Mine is at a repeater site 43 miles away.

Non-compatible with current ASL version?
The app seems to run fine with Hamvoip public node versions, but not ASL public node versions. It won’t display the astdb.txt file for a host list of who your connected to. Also on when connected to a ASL node, it won’t display a red tx when the node is keyed up, it does however on the Hamvoip side. Would like to see it be more comparable with the ASL version. Sent multiple support request emails, and no response.
