aprsd config problem?



Hello all,

I wrote regarding this awhile back, but my install was too cobbled to
tshoot. I've since re-installed Woody, compiled a custom kernel with AX.25
protocol support, reinstalled the libax25, ax25-tools, ax25-apps and
reinstalled aprsd.

I still suffer the same problem I had with the previous install, i.e., aprsd
won't stream output to it's ports (as config'd in aprsd.conf).

-If I telnet (from localhost or remote) to the non-history and raw ports, I
get only my server's beacon returned once only.

-If I telnet (from localhost or remote) to ports w/history, I get the
history dump as of the time of socket connect, but no further data streams
out.

-My aprs client sw, UI-View32, is config'd to mainport (10151). When it
connects, it gets the history dump, but no further data until its' timout,
and then it reconnects (same behavior whether the client officially "logs
in" or not). This reconnect results in another "aprsd -d" process being
spawned (as indicated by ps -aux). The STAT of all "aprsd -d" processes
remain "S" (Sleeping). The number of aprsd processes will increase into the
hundreds as re\connections occur).

-All the while, "listen" displays a constant incoming stream of aprs data
from the port.

Hardware config:
Via Eden 5000
10\100 NIC
TNC X(kiss only)->/dev/ttyS0

Relevent config data is as follows:

Anyone understand what the problem and solution is to this? It's driving me
crazy.
