You can find the patch at http://www.dafe.net/x25/ You have to: 1. Patch the kernel 2. during kernel configuration set up x25 stack, net link sockets, x25tap devices 3. compile kernel 4. compile xot daemon 5. boot new kernel and load appropriate modules (/sbin/modprobe x25tap unit=0) 6. up the x25tun0 device (ifconfig x25tap0 up) 6. update x25 route (route --x25 add 0/0 x25tap0) 7. run xotd and it may work (./xotd -v x25tap0 ipaddr) It works for me within two Linux maschines. But I haven't tested it with the CISCO yet. Best regards Daniel.
