Bauerly'" Cc: linux-hams@vger.kernel.org If you compile from source, I don't think it makes an ounce of difference. You can get the sources at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=24545 If you are looking for an rpm, you might have a hard time. As I recall, RH6.2 uses RPM 3. All of the new RPMs from RedHat are for RPM 4. I did a quick search on rpmfind.net and found the following RPMs being listed as part of the PowerTools-6.2 for i386 distro. I think this is like "add-ons" for RedHat. http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/powertools/6.2/i386/i386/libax25-0.0.7- 2.i386.html http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/powertools/6.2/i386/i386/ax25-tools-0.0 .6-2.i386.html http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/powertools/6.2/i386/i386/ax25-apps-0.0. 4-3.i386.html OR, You can avoid the whole RPM mess altogether and use Debian. This is what I would personally recommend. It has a far superior packaging system, you just type apt-get install ax25-tools and it downloads ax25-tools and all the package(s) it depends on (like libax25) for you, installs them all, and you're set. But if you like RedHat and RPMs, that's certainly your right. Hope this helps! 73 de Ben, KF4KJQ -----Original Message----- From: linux-hams-owner@vger.kernel.org [mailto:linux-hams-owner@vger.kernel.org] On Behalf Of John J.
