One seems to work, one doesn't. Software config the same on each one - RedHat 7.3 with the ax25 libs and utils installed. Kernel recompiled to support ax25 and kiss devices. The machine that works is using a Kenwood D7A radio at 9600 baud in kiss mode. kissattach seems to work, and if I ping the other end of the radio link, I get the radio going in to transmit mode in sync with the ping packets. The other end, however is a different story. It's a Kantronics KPC 9612+, with no radio on the first port, and a 9600 baud radio on the second port. Minicom works fine, and I can connect to the tnc and send and receive data on the TNC. My problem appears to be with mkiss. Am I correct in assuming that I need to run mkiss because the KPC 9612 is a dual-port TNC? I am running the foillowing commands: mkiss -s 9600 /dev/ttyS0 /dev/ptyq0 /dev/ptyq1 kissattach /dev/ttyq1 RADIO 172.16.0.2 The commands are accepted, and a network device is create, but if I ping, I get no radio traffic at all. I am suspecting that I need to do something fancy before I go in to kiss mode on the TNC. At the moment, I'm just doing a mycall followed by intface kiss. Should I do something else? Any help is greatly appreciated. I've spent all week trying to figure this one out!
