The SSL comment by Phil is pretty interesting. I didn't realize
you could do that, and is something I'm interested in looking
into.

P.S. The TAPR web page http://www.tapr.org has a group purchase
going on Freewave modems. I've got some older Proxim modems
that I bought in a surplus catalog, but I've yet to get serial
connectors mounted (but should during the holidays I hope).
These are both 115k modems in the 900 MHz band, but the Proxims
are 10 dBm output and the Freewave are 30 dBm. Anyone have a
circuit board etching for a 900 MHz beam that you can just mount
a brick modem to :-)

er, SSH, don't know how the "L" that thing got in there...

Did I say SSL? I meant SSH. SSL is the transport-layer secure sockets
layer used by secure web servers (URLs beginning with https:). SSH is
an ad-hoc set of clients and a server written by Tatu Ylonen that
provide a similar transport-layer security function, but oriented
towards UNIX remote command execution, remote login, and file
copy. SSH also provides a nifty TCP forwarding feature that was
originally put in to handle remote X windows, but can be used for
other applications too. (I use it to compress and encrypt all of my
web traffic between my browser and a Harvest web cache.)
Because of the fundamental similarities between SSL and the
transport-layer mechanisms in SSH there is talk of merging the two
within the IETF. Stream compression above TCP will definitely be a
feature, as it is a natural place to put it.
The SSH web page is <http://www.ssh.fi/>. The UNIX clients and server
are GNUware. There's a commercial version of the client for W95.

There are two different streams of ax25-utils, one for the alpha
kernels and one for the productions kernels. You just grabbed the
alpha kernel version.

Depends on what you are asking it to do. Running linux as a router
with minimal end user services is quite a reasonable proposition
in 4 Mb. If you want it to act as an application server then I agree
100%,
8M of real memory is the likely minimum configuration if you want
to establish a small domestic server and probably 16Mb if you want
to do something serious.
I maintain about 8 different Linux machines with wildly varying
hardware configurations so I have sound empirical data to work
with.
