Some days everyone uses 2.6 series kernels,and no one can't use Spider.

Ok.That's for jokes.
Some more info.

Client dies to point where spider send out:

You see everything works fine...I give all the details and close connection.
Now next connection direct via ax25:

Direct ax25 works!
So Connection crashes to output message,what it gives at first
connection.

Now I edited MOTD file and tried connection..Surprice!

So conclutions:Output more that prompt destroys connection..
Does this help any better?
