Hi All Agn,
I wonder if there are any new thoughts on rip44d and Linux Lite ?

Hi Tom,
Was just wondering if anything concrete had been traced with rip44d and Ubuntu 14.04 aka Linux Lite V2.0 locking up the system.
I have a feeling it is not rip44d as such but something not quite right with 14.04 as I have seen my laptop lockup hard without anything else installed like ham software.
Strange.
On another note, I had a look thru the kernel config on Debian 7.7 and found the PTY legacy support turned off so I reconfigured it and set 32 sudo ports, it took 4 1/2 hours for my old machine to compile the kernel but I have not tried it as yet.
The only reason I want the PTY`s is to link xfbb and xrouter on the same machine.
Regards ..... Peter ZL2BAU
Peter.
Did you checked whether you can employ socat instead of PTY's? So, now you're running Debian-7.7?
Take a look at my site: http://sp2l.ampr.org to see what ham soft is running.
I have LinuxLite and Ubuntu-14.04 in VirtualBox Had not too much time to play with, yet...

Hi Peter
My conflict was driven by problems with the onboard NIC and OpenVPN.
Having rebuilt everything and disabling the onboard NIC everything worked fine until I installed OpenVPN at which point I started to get reboot hangs.
With Tom’s help, I’m running amor-ripd 1.11 now which gives me a few more options.

Hello Andy.
At what stage you're now, bit further ahead than yesterday?
Best regards.
Hi Brian
Yes server up and running, getting RIP broadcasts and OpenVPN is allowing me to login and then access 44 net.
What is not working as I haven’t changed anything… is the allocation of 44 net IP’s to my login and then the reverse path I was trying to resolve.
And then… I downloaded Debian 7.x and started installing on a virtual box image :-)
Back to my day job…

It is nice to be important. But it is more important to be nice!

I can confirm, all running smooth on Debian 7.7.
I am using socat to create PTY links. e.g.: /usr/bin/socat pty,link=/var/ax25/axip,raw,echo=0 pty,link=/var/ax25/kip,raw,echo=0 & to create the pair /var/ax25/axip and /var/ax25/kip

Other than having to recompile the kernel to support legacy pty devices, are there any other benefits to going the socat route? Seems both powerful and overkill!

Except the fact that it is there ready to use without recompiling the kernel, in this case actually nothing. IMHO it just makes PTYs easier to handle.

That's almost like saying the following: "I blew a tire in my car, so I shifted the weight so that the rim doesn't touch the road." While you may be fortunate and have a smooth road to drive on, sooner or later you're going to hit a bump on the other side and that rim will touch... aka: your pc may lock. You may wish to verify proper driver for your internal NIC is correct and current.
Keep in mind this: one big difference between windows and linux is that windows does hardware read/writes via bios, Linux does them direct to the devices themselves. As I test, I've taken CDRW units that began to fail under NERO and other cd burning softwares on windows and then used the same physical device under linux, which always created the CD.
Hopefully for you, the system will become more stable for you now.
Thanks Brian
The internal NIC has always been a problem for me, as I had a couple of “known” devices it was easier to disable the onboard and use what I had.
I’m happy for things to go wrong… its part of my learning experience but like most things with Linux, I don’t have the experience to find out why something is failing.
Tom showed me the spare tyre approach to getting RIP running and so I took that rather than trying to work out where the real issues were. My “conflict” with RIP44d has gone away now that I’m running ampr-ripd but accept the whole things could start again on the next upgrade.
I’m back up and running again having learn’t more about RIP, OpenVPN and IPTables so its not all bad :-)
