I am using a single port TNC (tnc-x) and maybe mkiss is not the right tool for the job? I have tried rxecho, but that seemed to have a "ping-pong" effect in that I was transmitting and receiving everything back and forth between both ports, it's possible I set it up wrong.
What I am trying to accomplish is this, and I have not been succesfull at it yet: I have two TNC-X KISS mode TNC's, one for regular packet, one for APRS. I run javaaprssrvr for Igate software, will soon run digi_ned for digipeating/telemetry, and Xastir as a client on a seperate machine. I would like to share all 3 apps with one TNC, and I will be connecting Xastir to the box via an AXIP interface. On the packet side, I will be running FBB, (X)net, and eventually jNOS and whatever else I decide to experiment with later on :) I want to do the same thing, share the TNC with a host of apps. tnx and 73's Stephen K1LNX On 3/14/07, Brett Mueller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Maybe it doesn't matter, but it looks like your mkiss command is lacking a second pseudo-tty specification. If your TNC is single port, perhaps using "rxecho" would work better for your situation than mkiss? I have several apps sharing a TNC on my BBS; only one of them is actually attached to the TNC, but the others talk AX.25 "directly" through the TNC via rxecho on the appropriate shared interfaces.
