| Hi peoplez!
I am looking for library software (commercial or free) that implements
X.25
communication over XOT, X.25 over TCP. We have a cisco box already
connected to a X.25 network and I would like to be able to
connect to this via the LAN.
I am planning to run my program on a PC running FreeBSD.
If you know of such software please send me an email (or post to the
net).
Thanks in advance,
X-Ray

As I see it XOT only makes sense if you already have some legacy
harware and software which have been using X.25 over some X.25
network infrastructure, and that this infrastructure is being
discontinued. Some time ago I've been looking for the same
thing but found very little. We then got some company to build
a special TCP to X.25 gateway so our unix system could send TCP to
the gateway, and the gateway would then forward the data onto the
X.25 network. Doing this was rather expensive.
The linux kernel do have some driver code to format X.25 packages
which may or may not work. You do need to format X.25 packages
and tunnel these packages through TCP to talk to a XOT device.
