|
|
>There are a number of situations where it is highly desirable to associate
|
|
a callsign with a linux user account. One example might be where a number of
|
|
amateur radio operators share the same linux machine and wish to use their
|
|
own callsign when making calls. Another is the case of PMS users wanting to
|
|
talk to a particular user on your machine.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>The AX.25 software provides a means of managing this association of linux
|
|
user account names with callsigns. We've mentioned it once already in the PMS
|
|
section, but I'm spelling it out here to be sure you don't miss it.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>You make the association with the <EM
|
|
>axparms</EM
|
|
> command. An example looks

like:</P
