Right, well you can achive this by other more simple means, i have one
machine running a program called "net", it runs under linux in the same way
in which you have described, i use net2kiss to echo packets heard on certain
interfaces.
It is very simple, once you have attached the radio interface, but before
you start tnos do:
net2kiss -i ax0 /dev/ptyx1 &
Look into your /dev directory for a suitable pty/tty combination.
Now make a line in your autoexec.nos something like the following.
attach asy /dev/ttyx1 - ax25 ifc1 1024 1024 9600 <callsign>
Use ifconfig accordingly for that interface.
For IP traffic you can now attach tnos to linux in the normal 'slip'
manner using another pty/tty pair.
Using this combination you can still have node listen on the same radio
interface but then with a seperate SSID.
Now Tnos is directly accesable from an RF port without having to connect to
linux first. Further more there are other programs which can achive the same
goal, rxecho, kissbridge, etc.
axdigi would also be allegable for this purpose, that will also echo packets
from one interface to another.
You can also make an internal kiss interface with mkiss, look in your
ax25-utils dir ./etc/oh7lzb/rc.d/rc.ax25 this will give you more ideas on
how to achive what you want and of course tha 'man pages' for the different
programs, and the AX25-HOWTO for more gerneral information.
