You would do well to give it a trial run. It works fine, is well
documented (it is not easy, but Linux is about the same) and does a
few things better than bare Linux on the radio ports. I am refering
to the tricks it loads, like maxwait (ax25 and tcp), the LZW
compressed links (SMTP, POP3, ascii mode FTP), compressed FBB fwd,
to name a few, and does that quite OK.
You may digi with it, make a crossport digi too, use it as a netrom
node, etc, etc. Maybe you don't have or should not use all the
"weapons", but it is nothing to disregard easily.
It is on my "mix" here, and I am happy with it.
Take a look at ftp://pc.usl.edu/pub/ham/jnos.
