Ok, this reference scheme with devices associated to callsigns by ifconfig
with callsigns dictating ports names via axports is evil. I managed to
navigate all the icebergs for installing ax25 and a sound modem, but I
can't get past this:
#System is RedHat 6.2 running the distribution's ham packages
/sbin/ifconfig -a
sm0 Link encap: AMPR AX.25 HWaddr N7XZV-1
UP RUNNING PROMISC MTU:256 Metric:1
RX packets: 869 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
cat /etc/ax25/axports
# /etc/ax25/axports
2m N7xZV-1 1200 255 2 Test Port
call 2m ka7agh
axconfig: port 2m not active
call: no AX.25 port data configured
<<
Ok, so how do I configure AX.25 port data if not in /etc/ax25/axports?
It's not all bad, the soundmodem works GREAT. Love the oscilloscope
smdiag. It would be neat to have more modulations standards like newQPSK
etc.
