The lib/tools/apps are now in sourceforge.net somewhere. Ax25-tools-0.0.6
is the latest but I'm not sure if you need to upgrade. I haven't.
For Red Hat I'd go to the nearest RH mirror site, and get the libax25,
ax25-tools, ax25-apps and node RPMs that are included in the PowerTools.
Ax25-utils might work with a 2.2.x kernel but it's asking for trouble IMO.

Never seen any trouble here but then again I don't run a big network...
