Quick update as work is taking almost all of my time at the moment....
With the amazing assistance of Jim, N5MIJ, the Linux repeater is now connected to a lab-based G2 Trust Server which has an Icom G2 70cm repeater connected.
Database synchronisation works - the MNG, RIP and GIP tables are pulled down correctly and updates sent as new devices are added.
There is one issue that new stations that have an entry in the RIP table aren't updating the Trust Server when they are heard on the Linux system. This is due to me forgetting to migrate the "Check RIP" routine from flat text-files to SQLite3, and is probably due to me working far too late into the evening. This has been corrected and will be tested as-and-when time permits.
The next step will be to attempt a G2-routed QSO through the two repeaters - probably not until next week at the earliest.
Meanwhile, the Linux G2 system continues to perform very well as an RF-to-DPlus gateway.
