Hello all,

I finally got around to trying to configure ax25_call in ax25d.conf. I
saw a message sent back to the user ERROR: unable to bind AX25 to
socket, or something like that.. Sounded like a similar problem to what
the fella below had. was wondering if it's a bug in the code or what. My
configuration is similar as below, except that I'm kiss interfaced to
external tnc's.

Is this the proper syntax for this command lkine?
