Great. The only thing that may be a problem is that I'm committed
to keeping an AX.25 BBS running in connected mode, so it would have
to be an implementation that does connected-mode as well as IP
encapsulation in UI packets. I'm sure you're not interested in that
aspect ;-) .
There is X.25 support in FreeBSD already, I believe. That might
make it easier to implement AX.25.

Sorry for redundancy.. I should read all my mail before replying to any!
Anyhow, I don't know what AX.25 VC and DG are. Digipeat and Virtual
connection? Duh....

Thats enough to justify it in my mind. And continuing to read between
the lines and guess, an AF_INET socket should produce IP encapsulated
in AX.25, if an AX.25 interface happens to be the proper route?

I wasn't clear if AF_AX25 was there to act like a crude firewall.
Think I've learned something in this thread.

Don't forget:
Rose (experimentally)
and I think IP over the G8BPQ/Ethernet stuff is possible now too.

Subject: Wierd compile error
G'day All,
Some of you may of remembered I had a problem linking tnos a few
months
ago. Well I'm pleased to say I have got around the problem, but I don't
know why. I've also cc'ed this message to tcp-group, as this problem may be
a generic-nos one.
I had two new files called rspf2.c and rspf2dmp.c that are compiled into the
INTERNET and DUMP libraries respectively. Currently both files have only
one function apiece, ntohrspf_rrh() and rspf_dump(). rspf_dump() calls
ntohrspf_rrh().
Both files compile ok and go into their respective libraries. But when we
try to link all the libraries together (in that big-bang step to actually
make the binary), we get:
rspf2dmp.o(.text+0xa1): undefined reference to 'ntohrspf_rrh'
How do I get around this? In config.c
#ifdef RSPF
{ RSPF_PTCL, rspf_input },
#endif /* RSPF */
If I change the first line so it says
#if defined(RSPF) || defined(RSPF2)
and re-compile, it links.
Remember, I have not, as yet, written a rspf_input() function. Infact if
RSPF is undefined and RSPF2 is defined, rspf_input() doesn't appear
anywhere. What's going on? Why does this change make the file linkable?
