Re: remote TNC

["Øyvind Hanssen" <oyvind@cs.uit.no>]

I have also been thinking about this, specifically, I was thinking
about using Xastir on my laptop while the radio was running on 
another computer. 

I modfied the aprs_tty program by PE1DNN to use stdin/stdout
instead of a pty. Then I was able to use ssh to run this on the
computer with the radio and redirect i/o to the other end. I believe
it is possible to redirect the client end of ssh to a pty such that
Xastir can connect it. I havent managed to get it working yet
but it should not be too hard. 

Better though, I believe one could modify Xastir to fork off 
an external command and redirecting is i/o to a pipe etc. etc.

Of course, axip is a more generic solution, but with Xastir we
need the aprs_tty program anyway (if not running Xastir as root).
