It doesn't work that way. FBB runs all the time. It has it own callsign and
listens to all the ax25 ports you configure it to. Well, maybe that's not true
either... I think you can attach 9 ax25 ports. You can use ax25_call to connect
to it from ax25d via a loopback setup. I'm not sure what the point is unless
it's for netrom or alias or for changing a callsign based on the alias or.....
It's Linux.... You can do most anything. ;-) But fbb doesn't listen on stdin so
it can't be worked directly from ax25d.
