Ingo,
Start with a standard Unix Network Programming reference such
as "W Richard Stevens - Unix Network Programming". The move from
the standard protocols to the AX.25, NetRom and Rose protocols
is fairly simple to understand when you have a good grasp of
the underlying principles, looking at the source, or more particularly
ax25.h, netrom.h and rose.h makes a lot more sense then.
The only things that are different are:
the Address Families:
AF_AX25, AF_NETROM and AF_ROSE,
the sockaddr structures
this is probably the most difficult area to grasp. This information
is contained in the header files, and is well illustrated in the
user_call programs in the ax25 utilities.
the rest is pretty much standard Unix network programming.
