Since version 1.0.3 patch by vk5asf ax25ipd is checking every 5 minutes hostnames for dynamic DNS. There was still a failure possibility when the program is started in case of unsuccessful resolving remote host ip from its hostname was unsuccessful. I introduced a simple error warning instead of an exit as the remote host could be temporary down and the address will be checked again periodically later. The patch against ax25-apps-0.0.6.2 (kernel 2.6 compatible) can be found here : http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/ax25-apps-0.0.6.2.diff and ax25-apps-0.0.6.2 is here : http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/ax25-apps-0.0.6.2src_f6bvp.tgz 73 de Bernard, f6bvp
