<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My name is Jacob IC8FAX and I live in Capri
Island.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A friend of mine asked me a help about DxSpider
under Linux.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've installed the latest version 1.49 under Suse
7.3, but I didn't have troubles about installation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>Dx spider work very well with ax25 port, I have made one connection via
packet with not</DIV>
<DIV>problem same client.</DIV>
<DIV>Now I have setup Dxcluster with the set/node (ir8cap), this all ok.</DIV>
<DIV>after I have made ./client ir8cap. The message is ok but is not transmit
the string.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Type: <PRE>set/node GB7XXX
</PRE>
<P>(where 'GB7XXX' is a DX cluster which you expect to connect to or from).
<P>Now shut the cluster down by simply typing 'shutdown' at the prompt.
<P>The cluster and the client should both go back to prompts
<P>The callsigns should be the sysop callsign and the cluster callsign as per
your modified DXVars.pm. You can check that the cluster connections will work
by:- <PRE>$ client.pl gb7xxx (doesn't have to be uppercase).
PC38^GB7JIM^~ <- the cluster thinks this is a cluster
^C <- to get out
</PRE></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I'm using a Baycom modem on serial port and I've
configured it with Ax25Config by DG2FER.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>Linux is SUSE 7.3 Kernel is 2.4.10</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The ax25 daemon run very well but I can't use it with
DxSpider only when i set/node.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><STRONG>How can I resolve my
problem?</STRONG></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>It is necessary to configure a NET/ROM port?</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>I have made config with NET/ROM but this not run.</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>It runs with Kernel 2.4-10.<BR>I've installed libax25,
ax25apps and ax25tool.<BR>I made a copy of few conf files and the output
messages of Ax25-up.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Following there is a copy of few files:</DIV>
