Also I believe that the -l4 is log level 4 correct?=20 No, It starts only one instance of ax25ipd. The second call is in case ax25ipd will not be able to connect=20 immediately to remote ip stations, it only gives it a second chance.=20 Otherwise, the system would have to wait for one more hour until the=20 script starts again.
