The instructions are simple: Edit "nrports" file Edit "nrbroadcast" file Run "nrattach netrom" to create the device "nr0" Sounds easy but it doesn't work. Here is what I get when I enter in the "nrattach netrom" command: nrattach: SIOCGIFFLAGS: no such device nrattach: cannot find free NET/ROM device Copies of the following files are attached: axports nrports nrbroadcast rc.local output (from ifconfig command) Any help that you could offer would be appreciated! I am running RedHat 7.2 with the 2.4.18 kernel (ax25 enabled, libs,tools, apps all installed). Am I making an error in these simple files? or is there a greater evil lurking somewhere? I will be running 7 or 8 ports in the finished configuration. But for now I am just trying to get it all to work in its simplest form.
