The problem is the fact that when we try to use 'call' command on that port the TNC's 'STA' led comes on and hangs. We have tried it with different O\S (ie. Slackware, Debian), different kernels (2.4.33 & 2.6.14, 2.6.19) without any luck. The TNC does work, as we have tested it on another machine with packet. The only change from the last system that worked was now we are using modems as apposed to DRSI cards. Has anyone else come across this problem? We are wondering if it has something to do with crc-mkiss or ax25. We have compiled the ax25 libs, tools & apps from source and installed binaries. Any ideas, comments would be welcome.. ( I haven't given any scripts, as the scripts were fine from last installation. However, it was more of a question if someone else has come across this problem. Thanks in advance.. -- Regards, Stef Daniels VK5HSX (OpenPGP:0x82BE2EB0) Amateur Radio Station Adelaide, South Australia E-mail: vk5hsx@wia.org.au Member Wireless Inst. of Aust.
