tnt - a program by mark wahl, dl4ybg
questions i receive sometimes. (990221)

q: is it necessary to install ax.25-kernel 
   or ax.25 utils ? 
a: no
   tnt can be installed without this. 

q: i forgot to switch on the tnc2 
   what to do ? 
a: this is a well known proplem.
   only a kill -9 <pid> does help immediatly.

q: i have a linux distribution from xyz.
   is it possible to compile tnt ? 
a: i don't know. try it.
   tnt is able to be compiled on near 
   every linux distribution. 

q: is it possible to telnet to tnt ?
a: yes
   you have to open a port with the following command
   :socket axspec loopback:2222
   this can either be done from the window or 
   in the configuration-file itself.
   where 2222 is an example of an portnumber.
   if your_computer is connected to lan, then you 
   can do from every other computer of the lan a
   telnet your_computer 2222
   and also you can on your_computer a 
   telnet loopback 2222 
   and use the features of a xterminal or wherever
   you did start the telnet-session. 
   also you have to modify the file netpass.tnt
   as described in the documentation. 

   important information: 
   connecting over a non-ham-network is not allowed 
   in austria due to the new law for amateur radio. 

q: digi says: txdelay too long 
a: modify the parameter t 
   reduce the value. reduce more up to a point, it 
   will still not work again. then increase with 2
   you can do this by keying in  ":t <value> <return>"
   and checking the value with ":t <return>"

q: tfkiss was terminating normally.
   after new start it hangs.
a: remove the file tfkiss.par
