Tomi and Bob-
Thanks for your help with this.
I have ax25ipd running now.
I have sym links setup as:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 3 08:24 axip ->
/dev/ttyS0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 3 08:24 axipd ->
/dev/ptyp0
with the following in rc.local
/usr/sbin/kissattach -i 44.56.20.25 -m 512 /dev/axip radio
and
in ax25ipd.conf
device /dev/axipd
Thank you both!
