"Amateur Radio Emergency Digital Network" or some such. They pronounce this "ARRR DIN" like a pirate. I want to call it "ARR-AH-DIN". Too bad for me.

The nearest neighbor for me is the Willamette Valley Mesh Network.

- Downloaded the x86 version from https://downloads.arednmesh.org/afs/www/ (type "x86" in Model)
- Converted the img file to a vdi using VboxManage. Takes about a second.
VBoxManage convertfromraw --format VDI aredn-3.24.10.0-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined.img aredn-3.24.10.0-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined.vdi Converting from raw image file="aredn-3.24.10.0-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined.img" to file="aredn-3.24.10.0-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined.vdi"... Creating dynamic image with size 126353408 bytes (121MB)...
- Create in a vbox machine (128MB RAM, 2 CPUs), remove the IDE controller, and add a second network adapter and set it to Bridged mode
- Launch the machine.
- It shows a hostname of NOCALL, it is possible to set a hostname using "W6GKD-astoria", like this, but this is the wrong thing. Instead run "/usr/local/bin/firstuse-setup W6GKD-astoria" and that will set the hostname and do other as-yet unspecified stuff. I chose the name based on their rules which say make the callsign all caps.
uci set system.@system[0].hostname='W6GKD-astoria' uci commit system /etc/init.d/system reload
- Reboot. This gets me some IP addresses in /etc/hosts. Funky ones.
- In the console, entered commands to set br-lan to DHCP and rebooted. That got me a usable IP address on my lan.
- Connected with password "hsmm" using ssh -p 2222 [email protected]
- Rebooted. Now there are services on port 80 and 8080 but not reachable (?).
Build your own
Source code is in github https://github.com/aredn/aredn
I installed docker on Murre for this.
