Hello, I would like to use socat on my LL box as a remote virtual com port for a windows application controlling my Kenwood TS2K (in addition to iax-rpt). The pre-built CF image does not appear to include the socat binaries. Do I just edit the socat line in the d201gly2-buildroot.config file (despite the do not edit warning) to include it in a new image build? Also, the readme file makes reference to a PACKAGES file that includes all the packages in a build. I have been unable to locate this file. 73 Dale NV8U

May I suggest an alternate plan of attack? Limey linux has a C compiler built in. As long as ./configure passes for socat, then you can compile it on the target machine, and install it in /usr/local/sbin or /usr/local/bin. Do a svcfg to save the contents of /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin so it comes back across power cycles. This will not work if your package requires things like perl, c++, tcl, or python. There is only bare-bones development abilities available (just enough to install Asterisk and Zaptel). Steve WA6ZFT
