Hi all,

Just a quick note to suggect that digipeating appears to work without any
extra software.

I am running vk6bbs with Linux 2.0.28 and the normal recommended patches
and utilities. The system runs xfbbd and Linux node. I was surprised
recently to see other stations digipeating successfully via vk6bbs-14 and
after trying it for myself I can vouch for the fact that it works. I have
not thought through which piece of hardware or software is handling the
digipeating but I definitely do not run axdigi or any other software
specifically for this function. The TNCs are running multi-drop kiss mode
through mkiss.
