The distribution of these is optional and each node will use rsync to download new ones about 2-3 times per day. This is done via the rc.updatenodelist script and requires '''rsync''' to be installed.
The distribution of these is optional and each node will use rsync to download new ones about 2-3 times per day. This is done via the rc.updatenodelist script in ASL 1.01 and before, or NodeNameUpdate.sh via cron in newer releases. It requires '''rsync''' to be installed.
== Important changes ==
As of June 4, 2019 rsync://allstarlink.org no longer works.
It is suggested you change the re.updatenodelist file to use rsync.allstarlink.org.
The following sed command can make the change automatically for you.
sed -i 's/rsync:\/\/allstarlink.org\/connect-messages/rsync:\/\/rsync.allstarlink.org\/connect-messages/g' /usr/local/bin/rc.updatenodelist
