here is the ax25-down script that is supposed to kill it all.
I am not using any of this but just the AX25 stuff. I run listen
manually right now.
I am just trying to sort through it all.

  tmp="`cat /proc/\`cat /var/run/ax25d.pid\`/cmdline`"
  if [ "$tmp" == "/usr/sbin/ax25d" ]; then
    kill `cat /var/run/ax25d.pid`
  else
    echo "stale \"ax25d\" pid-file, deleting..."

  rm -f /var/run/ax25d.pid

if [ "$Auswahl" != "" ]; then 
ifconfig "$Auswahl" down
fi
done
# Startkiss0
killproc -KILL /usr/sbin/kissattach > /dev/null
modprobe -r ax25; modprobe -r kiss; modprobe -r mkiss > /dev/null
