I don't know how xnet works but if it's attaches a kiss interface like nos....
# axports file
ax0 p0rt-0 9600 256 2 loopback loopback link
ax1 p0rt-1 9600 256 2 loopback2 loopback link
# Loopback Link
kissnetd /dev/ptya0 /dev/ptya1 &
# Attach loopback1
kissattach /dev/ttya0 ax0 44.x.x.x
# Link to xnet
net2kiss -i ax0 /dev/ptyb0 &
# Attach loopback2
kissattach /dev/ttya1 ax1 44.x.x.x
# Link to xnet
net2kiss -i ax1 /dev/ptyb1 &
If you try to connect to FBB on ax0, it will hear you and reply on ax1 which
you will hear back on ax0 because the two ports are linked by kissnetd. In this
case xnet shares the ax25 loopback and gains one itself providing xnet attaches
/dev/ttyb0 and /dev/ttyb1. Fbb can share all the ax25 interfaces so just put ax1
and ax2 in the port.sys file.
