I am attempting to setup Caldera Linux 2.3 to support Amateur Radio AX.25
via KISS TNC interface.

The "HOW-TO" document that comes with the Linux software is from 1997 and
does not relate to the 2.2 kernel.

I am able to "load" the "AX.25 Module" via the "kernel modules" application,
but what now? The old documentation refers to a /etc/ax25 directory that
does not exist.

So where is the latest information? Should I switch to Redhat?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Don't bother switching to RedHat. I am trying to set up RedHat for AX.25
and am in the same boat. I came to the newsgroup hoping I could find some
pointers. I'm also going to check out tapr.org.

I suggest y'all switch to Debian. Debian is 100% user-contributed;
it is developed by a community of interested people over the internet
and is not driven by any company. We have several hams in our midst
and have a mailing list debian-hams about ham radio software issues on
Debian. Craig Small, the developer of the new ax25-tools software,
is a Debian developer so we always have the latest ax25 tools.
