OM: Don't want to downgrade - just get it to work. :^)..

Kernel 2.0.35 - utils 42a - net-tools-1.34 compile and install with
no errors.. /etc/ax25/axports entered as I've always done..

Looking good but not good from then on:
Invoking kissattach /dev/ttyS1 hf returns
kissattach TIOSETD: Invalid Argument.
No amount of futzing helps and I've simplified the kissattach
entry above since I also enter the ip address and mtu, etc, but
nothing gets away from the TIOSETD problem..

I presumed it was because of net-tools 1.34, therefore the
original request for 1.33.. btw still can't find 1.33 anywhere so
downloaded 1.50 from the uk and it's set up for glibc instead of my
libc5... I **like** to stay behind the times. HI...

I can use Jnos111C on the same machine so everthing else
seems to be working OK..

Maybe someone can attach 1.33.tar.gz to me just for kicks??
Vy 73,
