In the beginning of Jonathan's message it _clearly_ says:

" If you are running a bog standard Linux 2.0.x, 1.3.x (!!!) or Linux
2.0.x with any ax25-module less than 10, or even Linux 2.1.0 to 2.1.8 then
this doesn't affect you ... but it will one day. "

In other words, Jonathan's instructions are not relevant for kernel
2.0.27 with ax25-utils-2.0.12c. With them, axparms -parms does the trick.

I thought you just promised to not try helping others with your bad
advice. 8-]
