    I am trying to run a PERL script as the "server" for some AX25 connections.
    My PERL script works fine when I invoke it from the command line.

    In ax25d.conf I specifiy a bash script to be run as the session command.
    Inside the bash script there is an 'echo' command, which I see when i connect.
    Other commands in that script also work. But then it runs the PERL script and
    everything just stalls.

    Here is the bash script:

    #!/bin/bash
    echo 'wait...'
    HOME=/home/bbs
    echo 'HOME set'
    cd /home/bbs
    pwd
    perl t.pl

    and here is the PERL script:

    #!/usr/bin/perl
    print "Hi\n";
    print "Enter a number\n";
    $buf = <STDIN>;
    $n = $buf * 2;
    print "Twice that is $n\n";
    print "bye!\n";

    Any suggestions?
