FLEXD(8)

🌸 FLEXD(8) 🌸

okay bestie, so this is flexd — the flexnet routing daemon backend for URONode, from the Linux System Managers Manual 💖

✨ NAME ✨

flexd — flexnet routing daemon backend for URONode.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

routing daemon

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So flexd is a simple flexnet routing daemon back end, and honestly? she's serving. Her whole job, her entire purpose, her main character arc, is to import pc/FlexNet destinations into URONode so auto-ax25 routing can happen. That's it. That's the gig. 👑

Now, lowkey important thing: it's quite normal sometimes for flexd to throw an error when it boots up, if it can't make a connect to the neighbor flex node listed in flexd.conf. Do not panic, bestie, this is just a thing that happens 🙈. And when it can connect? It will do so automatically. No input from you required. She handles it. 💅

✨ COMMANDS ✨

There are no commands for flexd. None. Zero. Nada. 🎀

All the runtime parameters live in flexd.conf, so if you were looking for flags to type at her, she's not that kind of girl. Go read the config file, iykyk.

✨ FILES ✨

• /usr/local/etc/ax25/flexd.conf — the flexd configuration file. This is where the runtime parameters are, bestie. Go there. 🌸

✨ THANKS TO ✨

The absolute legends she's thanking, in order, no skips:

• Stefano Noferi IZ5AWZ <iz5awz@radio-gw.cnuce.cnr.it>
• Tomi Manninen OH2BNS <tpmannin@cc.hut.fi>
• Alan Cox GW4PTS <gw4pts@gw4pts.ampr.org>
• Roy PE1RJA <roy@esrac.ele.tue.nl>

okay quick vibe check before you go: remember that bootup error thing? Not a bug, not a crisis, just flexd saying she couldn't reach the neighbor flex node in flexd.conf yet. When she can, she connects herself. Automatically. That's the whole mood. ⭐
