Hi,

Yes, I like your script.

On the one hand my thoughts were about using the control panel / network
configuration tool, to install and setup an AX25 network interface, just
like a ethernet eth0 or piontopiont ppp0 or parallel plip0.

Secondly has any one look at how the network interfaces are setup i.e. the
/etc/sysconfig/network script plus the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-?,ifup-?,ifdown-? scripts.My ethernet
card configuration uses these scripts as part of its setup at boot time.

I have the kernel at boot time load the modules ax25 and mkiss via the
conf.modules using :-

alies net-pf3 ax25
alies tty-ldisc-5 mkiss
alies ax0 mkiss

with out  using the ismod command. Whats needed now is a configuration
script.

All I need now is a ifcfg-ax0,ifup-ax0,ifdown-ax0 scripts added. From what I
can see, I beleave that these would be pickup by automatically by the other
setup scrips in /etc/rc.d. Thus all I need do is enter the paramaters in
ifcfg-ax0.

This would make the setup just a littel bit more tidy.
