I'm experimenting.   First step is to try and get a couple Linux boxes
passing
AX25/UDP packets back and forth.  Then I should be able to add JNOS
to the mix.

First question. Can somebody please confirm that the ax25ipd.conf option,
"socket udp" is what I need to run over UDP instead of using the Protocol 4
on
TCP?

All the docs I find suggest it's port 93 I have to forward through the
Internet
router - correct?

I'm running in TNC mode so that means I'm exchanging KISS packets?

Does anybody with a running axudp system have a few moments to add me
temporarily (maybe?) to their setup so help me debug the system here.  I
had this all running about 4 years ago and I made the mistake of turning it
off.
It's always harder to restart something then to keep it going.

Thanks,
Bill
