[Dxspider-support] Who command and IP addresses.

[Roland Huysentruyt,ON6HH]

Hi Fred and all 

On on0dxk ( linux ) for all users ( ax25 and telnet ) ip  127.0.0.1 is displayed !
Only the outgoing clusterconnects via telnet have their proper ipnr displayed.
But d'ont ask me why ! My ip and linux knowledge is so poor I can't answer .
sorry
