How to install SvxReflector?
SvxReflector is a part of SvxLink. That's why we need to install SvxLink and later configure SvxReflector (client and server version).
We will compile and install SvxLink from the source.
Install a couple of packages that SvxLink depend on. In a terminal, type the following commands.
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install g++ libsigc++-2.0-dev libgsm1-dev libpopt-dev tcl-dev libgcrypt11-dev libspeex-dev libasound2-dev make alsa-utils git cmake libqt4-dev libopus-dev opus-tools libcurl-dev libjsoncpp-dev
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install g++ libsigc++-2.0-dev libgsm1-dev libpopt-dev tcl-dev libgcrypt20-dev libspeex-dev libasound2-dev make alsa-utils git cmake libqt4-dev libopus-dev opus-tools libcurl4-gnutls-dev libjsoncpp-dev
Then add svxlink user.
sudo useradd -c "Echolink user" -G audio -d /home/svxlink -m -s /sbin/nologin svxlink
Then, put this code to the terminal
git clone https://github.com/sm0svx/svxlink.git
cd svxlink
mkdir src/build
cd src/build
cmake -DUSE_QT=OFF -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR=/etc -DLOCAL_STATE_DIR=/var -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make
sudo make install
At this stage we successfully installed SvxLink.
Now we need to connect SvxLink (running as SvxReflector client) to SvxLink (running as SvxReflector server).

#####End of the configuration file for the SvxLink server######
The program, Screen, or GUI Screen, is a program that allows multiple command line desktops.
- Screen allows you to view the activity of your SVXLink when you login via SSH.
- Without screen, you can only view SVXLink's activity via viewing the log files.
Download and install Screen
sudo apt-get install screen
Modify the rc.local file to start SVXLink in a 'screen' named 'svxlink'.
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
Add following string
sudo screen -dmS "svxlink" svxlink
exit 0
Save and exit
Create a shortcut to go to the svxlink screen by simply typing 'el' from any folder.
sudo nano /usr/local/bin/el
#!/bin/bash
sudo screen -x svxlink
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/el
Start SvxLink (running as SvxReflector client) by typing sudo svxlink at the terminal.
If you want to start SvxReflector as a server you need to do the following.
Start SvxLink (running as SvxReflector server) by typing sudo svxreflector at the terminal.
