I just spent some time this last month getting ax25 set up on my Red Hat
5, so far its working great, but I was not able to compile any of the ax25
utilitys, I ever try doing a kernal patch up grade, no go, but what I did
was I downloaded all the ax25 util on to my friends Red Hat 4.2 and
compiled it on there, and downloaded the bin to my Red Hat 5 system, and
so far it seems to work great, havent had a core dump yet! :) also running
the rspf 0.07 since it already had a bin on the net, and so far its ok,
just notice its a mem hog. :)
