Yes it can, BUT not together with the kernel, meaning if you attach ports
in the kernel you cant attach the same devce in Jnos.
You can use pty/tty pipes, i explaned that to you beofre.

Wrong, its
attach asy /dev/scc0 - ax25 scc0 512 256 1200
I may be the culprit for sayin it was plien scc0.
Now you can have the best of both worlds, devices attached to the kernel
and pipe the traffic to tnos as follows.
ifconfig scc0 44.131.162.130 hw ax25 g1zpu mtu 256
net2kiss -i scc0 /dev/ptypa &
The in autoexec.nos
attach asy /dev/ttypa - ax25 scc0 512 256 9600

It is saying the device scc0 is not valid, its /dev/scc0

No, ifconfig for scc interfaces.
Or simply attach then via jnos.

Yes from the kernel, because you attached them.

Its not that bad, and does explain this very well.

I told you who to contact for a very good one.

Yep, why even use jnos i say, but if you realy need it then its not so
difficult to setup.

I dont know what the difference is.?
