Linwood;

Please be very careful with this.

There's many kernel issues with the ax25 stack and newer kernels that cause the kernel to simply lock, panic, and other nasties. Also I don't see why you would want or need ax25 within a router per say. There's nothing you're really going to gain by doing this, if anything it'll only create another possible back door for crackers to bypass your firewalling using ham protocols to take over control of your router device if they so chose to do such.

Hello all,

If anyone is familiar with public software development, I need to get the Linux AX.25 software suite added to OpenWRT.

I've successfully generated a makefile and /patches that will compile the current libax25, but have issues with compiling ax25-tools (which needs libax25; but I'm having trouble building individual packages with dependencies in other locations). I haven't tried ax25-apps.

OpenWRT already posses kmod-ax25.

Very basic for someone who knows. Please contact me.

I submitted a series of five patches to add libax25, ax25-apps, ax25-tools, aprsd and digi-ned to Openwrt back in July of 2009. You can find the patches in the archive starting with this one: https://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail/openwrt-devel/2009-July/thread.html#4630

They were never included as part of OpenWRT and would no longer directly apply but could be useful.
