 Installation of ax25spyd:

 First of all, the LinuX kernel must be compiled with AX.25-support
 (either compiled-in or as modules is possible). If you wish to compile
 the demo program ax25spy you must have ncurses installed as well.

 Now untar ax25spy.tar.gz, e.g. with the command
 `tar xzvf ax25spy-0.20pre.tar.gz` (probably you have already done so, since
 the file you are reading is included there).

 PLEASE read the README file. It explains the concept of this monitoring
 suite.

 Next, read INSTALL (ok, you are doing this right now).

 Execute the following commands:

     % ./configure
     % make
     # make install

 The third command, `make install`, will have to be run as root to install
 all files to their correct positions.

 If all has gone well, you can run /usr/sbin/ax25spyd as root. It will
 print a short message and then put itself into daemon mode. If you like,
 you can include it in a bootscript, preferrably the script where your AX.25-
 setup is done. Using -q gives a nicer startup-screen :-)

 To test the daemon, try
     % ax25spy
 or
     % ax25spy -b
 (same, but without color support).
 As soon as something is decoded by your modem, you should seen an output
 similar to listen(1).

 There are other options possible, e.g. spying a specific callsign or just
 all DX messages. It is possible to connect ax25spyd up to 50 times
 concurrently. Please check the manpages of ax25spyd and ax25spy for
 further information.

 The file ax25spyd.shtml contains examplary code for displaying AX.25 data
 with a web browser. You will need the Apache web server (available at
 http://www.apache.org) with enabled server side includes for this.
