This is the part of > the puzzle I seem to be missing...... When you "kissattach" to ttyS4, a network device (ax0 or similar) is created. Like the "ethernet device", eth0, access is not exclusive. The AX.25 network device ax0 is then associated with the appropriate entry in /etc/axports. Multiple apps can access the device this way. You don't have to split the streams up.
