Hi David,
I tried this route too. No workie.. Also the docs on several of the web
sites state that the ax-utils do not work with 2.2.x kernels.. I am totally
confused on this. The site at http://meow.febo.com/linux-ax25/index.html
shows the ax25-utils as a 2.0.x based support package and the ax25-tools as
a 2.2.x package.
I am starting over this morning with the install of the previously
mentioned ax25-tools and support stuff and will see what goes from there.
I also found ax25-tools-0.0.6.tar.gz which is not on the "official site" at
ftp://ftp.hes.iki.fi/pub/ham/linux/ax25/ as that site has the latest
version as ax25-tools-0.0.5.tar.gz. Should I use this? Anyone care to comment?
This is almost enough to make me want to run a Windoze box for the packet
stuff. But not yet.. I have a working and very stable CLX system that I
want to interface here.
BTW how is the 2.2.16 kernel? I had a ton of trouble with crashing network
stacks on about 20 machines in our network when we went to that.
