Hello all,

    I'm using "ax25rtd" from the latest ax25 packages. I use the daemon to
add automatically the routes for the stations heard, but the problem is
that when a user is making the connections TCP/IP(AX.25) to one of my
ports and then he switches to another port he looses the TCP/IP access
because the routing entry is still redirected to first port where it was
heard for the first. Because ax25rtd don't update TCP/IP routing entries I
am using "ax25rtctl" to solve that problem.
    I have "ax25rtctl" in the cron to expire stations last heard for more
than 5 minutes. The problem is that ax25rtd sometimes crashes, I think
when it doesn't any IP routing entry in its database.
    I would make the suggestion of putting an entry in the ax25rtd config
file to define an expire time for the ax.25 and ip routing entries. In
addition, to write the needed  code in the daemon to do that job
automatically.
    Finally, and the most important is to solve this CRASH that occurs
with the daemon when we launch the "ax25rtctl" to send an expire command.
Note, that this is not frequent so it will be hard to find the problem.

    Regards,

  Jorge Matias
