Hi,
After some consternation, I was able to bring up Theo Deraadt's AX25
driver on my Sparcstation running SunOS 4.1.3. The documentation claims
I should configure the network interface with a netmask of 255.255.255.0,
but if I do this, I can't talk to many other hosts that are in range and
nearby, including interesting gateways and the like. Maybe if there were
a router on my subnet (44.4.2.0), I could use it, but this seems like a
suboptimal way of setting things up.
I changed my netmask to 255.255.0.0 so my broadcast address is currently
all-norcal (44.4.0.0), and this allows me to establish connections with
many people in range, but not on my subnet. However, while I was able
to establish connections with them, they were not able to establish a
connection with me. Confused, I looked at my kernel routing tables,
and they showed something like this:
Routing Table:
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ----- ------ ---------
localhost localhost UH 0 308 lo0
sun-ether lila UGH 0 1541 le0
all-norcal n3lmf UG 0 17 ax0
When I add a default route like this:
% route add net default w6yx 1
My routing table then looks like this:
Routing Table:
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ----- ------ ---------
localhost localhost UH 0 308 lo0
default w6yx UG 0 2 ax0
sun-ether lila UGH 0 1541 le0
all-norcal n3lmf UG 0 17 ax0
And now my machine accepts incoming connections from the internet (w6yx
is a gateway) and from w6yx, but still has problems with other ampr
hosts. Anyone got any ideas about what I'm doing right and wrong in
configuring things? BTW, the gateway lila in the tables above is the
hostname of the Sparcstation I'm running this on.

: I am using ka9q to collect news from only 2 news groups from internet
: Soo many articles are sent to me and I am scanning them with a word processor
: Is there a program to display the files on my ssytem and review them PC-DOS
: thank you for any help Dennis G German
I wrote a newsreader called NRN. you can get a copy from

73's, Fred
PS: The available Version has a few things, that could be made better
but I don't run DOS any more :-) So development stopped some months
ago, but its stable enough to work with it :-)
Patches to the code can (and should) be sent to me, i'll put them into
official releases normally...
