RE: [suse-ham-e] AX25 Suse 7.1 & kernel 2.4

Cool, I needed to know to. Have a Question. At onetime I was running the IGate for Alaska's APRS. Now our club wants to to run a Gateway via Linux. To the Internet, At one time years ago I was running JNOS 1.10 but for RF only. But they want to be able to connect to my station and sent email to other hams via the Internet. I know that I'll have to allow Amateurs Only so I will most likely need to have one of the Call sign Database's on line and be able to update it Daily or weekly. Would like to either run on VHF or UHF. I have a T1 coming into my House so Bandwidth is not an issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 73's de WL7JA -----Original Message----- From: randy(a)randyrathbun.org [mailto:randy@randyrathbun.org] Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2001 12:38 PM To: Cees Tool Cc: suse-ham-e(a)suse.com Subject: Re: [suse-ham-e] AX25 Suse 7.1 & kernel 2.4 I am using it here and it seems to be working fine. Have DXNet packetcluster up and churning away for almost a week now without a problem, along with a netrom node. Havent done anything with FBB and doubt I will. Nothing fancy in the set up. Pretty much just used what I always have - did not change any startup scripts or anything.

AX25 Suse 7.1 & kernel 2.4
by Cees Tool 30 May '01

Hi All, I am looking for some results of AX25 with Suse 7.1 and kernel 2.4. I have heard from some hams that kernel 2.4 is not stable with ax25. Linuxnet seems to crash and internal ax25 connections seem to crash linux. These reports were from a RedHat user with kernel 2.4.4. As I want to install Suse 7.1 from scratch on a new system here, I like to know if the same problems happening with suse 7.1 and kernel 2.4, otherwise I could install 2.2.18 (I believe that's the other kernel included in Suse 7.1 ?) (I will install CLX-cluster / xFBB mailbox / LinuXNET / Converse etc. on this new system, most of it is now running on Suse 6.4 and an old Redhat 4.2 systems which we want to combine on one system in the future ) Any reports or good tips on Suse 7.1 and ax25 ? Regards, Cees Tool - PA3AES
