Your problem description is a bit vague but I guess the problem is that
your AX.25 users get an LF as the end-of-line character whereas their
packet terminal program expects (quite correctly) a CR.
The reason for this is that over a telnet connection LinuxNode expects to
see CR-LF or CR-NUL as the end-of-line sequence (most text based internet
protocols use these). Conversd however sends only an LF and node doesn't
think it as an EOL so it doesn't do any translation.
IMHO this is really a TPP problem. I could add some sort of hack to node
for this but I'm afraid it might break something else. I'd much rather fix
HTPP, I need to ask Hessu for his opinion.

Erroneous? Please read the node(8) man page.
