* AX25 Hacks for Linux
This is a collection of scripts which allow personal mailboxes and
chatting over AX25 under a Linux environment. You should find a
tutorial to follow in order to get the basics setup, and whether you
use a hardware or software modem is up to you, so long as it provides
an ax interface.
- *axchatroom* - provides a chat room
- *axmailbox* - provides a mailbox allowing users to send mail to each
other.
** Requirements
The standard AX25 linux bits are required under Linux:
- Linux with the ax25 and kiss modules included (Fedora, Ubuntu,
etc. should be ok.
- ax25-apps
- ax25-tools - should include ~ax25d~ and ~axwrapper~
** Setup
Before starting your ~ax25~ you need to modify your
~/etc/ax25/ax25d.conf~. Mine looks a bit like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC
[M6PIU-2 VIA ax0]
NOCALL * * * * * * L
default * * * * * * 0 root /usr/local/sbin/axwrapper axwrapper /usr/bin/axmailbox axmailbox %U
[M6PIU-3 VIA ax0]
NOCALL * * * * * * L
default * * * * * * 0 root /usr/local/sbin/axwrapper axwrapper /usr/bin/axchatroom axchatroom %U
#+END_SRC
Of course, it's not a good idea to run these as root, but do whatever
you are comfortable with.
You'll also need to modify the top part of each script as they have a
few variables each.
