Instead of doing this you can add a service to ax25d to put WWConvers
receiving calls from AX.25 interface directly.
To do this you have to install a little util, called "axconv", for that
purpose.
Where to find this util:
ftp://ftp.hes.iki.fi/pub/ham/unix/convers/axconv.c.gz
This is the source code compressed which has documentation on the top
of the file. Compile it and add a line to the ax25d.conf to answers calls
and launch this program. It will telnet to TCP/IP service (you configure
your convers deamon) and do that LF<->CR+LF translation.
The program has other option which are usefull too.
