I have debain installed and Dixprs installed. My biggest problem is the gap between my ears.  I'm planning on running the system with a KPC-3+ in Kiss mode through the standard USB port.  The problem I'm hitting right now is how to define the port in the config.txt file.  I just don't know linux well enough to figure out how to find the port then declare it correctly in the file.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi

first identify port USB serial port. It is most likely /dev/ttyUSB0 if you have only one USB serial device attached. Then use ttyUSB0 in the DIXPRS config file.

Well I know I have something wrong in the config.  I'm getting the following server side errors when I try and access the web server page

*** DIXPRS 2.2.2 - 05-09-2012 - (pid=2886)

Missing port
Radio port configuration error
*** IGATE process started [host=noam.aprs2.net, port=14580] (pid=2889)

port=81

and the radio section is

# Mandatory parameters

INTERFACE=KISS

# Serial port

# Optional parameters

# Modem speed, default is 1200

Hi - you have the line specifying the serial port commented out. The beginning "#" needs to be removed.

Thanks Lee.  that got it.

Now for a seemingly "left field" question.  I live up in Washington state and we have a web page http://www.nwaprs.info/ with the local preferred configurations on it.  I'm wondering if I need to worry about these settings in my config or in the KPC-3+ I will have connected to this.
