I’m using uronode as front end node, but i’m also like to connect to different packet software.
This time it’s linbpq. Lets go…..
First of all bpq32.cfg
Change the comport to COMPORT=/dev
PORT
PORTNUM=1
ID=Link Local
TYPE=ASYNC
PROTOCOL=KISS
FULLDUP=0
COMPORT=/dev
SPEED=19200
CHANNEL=A
NOKEEPALIVES=0
PERSIST=160
SLOTTIME=180
TXDELAY=180
TXTAIL=23
QUALITY=192
MINQUAL=100
MAXFRAME=4
FRACK=5000
RESPTIME=1000
RETRIES=25
PACLEN=128
UNPROTO=APBPQ1,PI1LAP-5
BCALL=PI1LAP-9
L3ONLY=0
DIGIFLAG=1
DIGIPORT=0
USERS=0
ENDPORT
Axports
root@gw:/usr/local/linbpq# cat /etc/ax25/axports
ax1 PI1LAP-9 19200 256 2 Linbpq pi1lap-9
Now the linbpq start file
setcap "CAP_NET_ADMIN=ep CAP_NET_RAW=ep CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE=ep" linbpq
# Link local pi1lap-9
echo "Starting ax1 "
if grep ax1 /etc/ax25/axports ; then
tmpfile="/tmp/$.startax5.pts"
kissnetd -p 2 > "$tmpfile" &
sleep 2
attachthem () {
read PTS1 PTS2
kissattach -l $PTS1 ax1 44.137.31.73 || return=$rc_failed
ifconfig ax1 44.137.31.73 netmask 255.255.255.224 up
sleep 1
sed -i "s,COMPORT=/dev/.*$,COMPORT=$PTS2," /usr/local/linbpq/bpq32.cfg
}
tail -n 1 $tmpfile | attachthem
rm $tmpfile
sleep 3
else
echo "Error ax1 not found in the file axports"
return="Failed"
fi
echo "$1 $return"
cd /usr/local/linbpq
sudo ./linbpq >/dev/tty4
Ok let’s look it ok now
ps ax | grep kissattach
root@gw:/usr/local/linbpq# ps ax | grep kissattach
5910 ? S 0:00 kissattach -l /dev/pts/16 ax1 44.137.31.73
6504 pts/19 S+ 0:00 grep kissattach
Now have a look in bpq32.cfg
root@gw:/usr/local/linbpq# grep COMPORT=/dev bpq32.cfg
COMPORT=/dev/pts/17
Here you see there is a PTS couple /dev/pts/16 and /dev/pts/17
So we are good to go.

The route to pi1lap-9 is there in uronode. Let’s try a connect.
