Something's running that shouldn't be...

I've installed LinBPQ32 and got it mostly configured, but I'm running into a problem when folks try to connect to MYCALL (N4NVD). After some digging I've found that there's a program running at boot that's competing with LinBPQ32 for the connection, and wins a good part of the time. Below is the output from the 'ps -axg' command that shows W5TJL connected to wl2kax25d - what is that program? I need to get that out of the way, but I'm not sure how.
1444 ? S 0:00 wl2kax25d -c W5TJL -a udr0
1644 ? Dl 0:01 lxterminal
1663 pts/3 Ss 0:00 bash
1724 pts/3 R+ 0:00 ps -axg

the section [W5TJL VIA udr0] in file /etc/ax25/ax25d.conf I am the maintainer for paclink-unix & Linux RMS Gateway that is why they are in the NWDR image which has support for configuring it. To learn more about Linux based ax25 daemon man ax25d man ax25d.conf LinBPQ32 originated from Microsoft DOS BPQ code and supports many non AX25 interfaces lie AEAPactor, ARDOP, FLDigi and more. If you are running LinBPQ there is not a lot of advantage to running the NWDR image except for all the utilities for setting up & maintaining the UDRC/DRAWS hat.

So I opened the file and it's got two entries in it:
[N4NVD-10 VIA udr0] NOCALL * * * * * * L
default * * * * * * - rmsgw /usr/local/bin/rmsgw rmsgw -P %d %U
#
[N4NVD VIA udr0]
NOCALL * * * * * * L
default * * * * * * - pi /usr/local/bin/wl2kax25d wl2kax25d -c %U -a %d
This looks like it's sending anything it catches coming in from N4NVD or N4NVD-10 and sending it to another couple of programs that I'm guessing are Winlink related. If I comment out both of these it should stop this from happening for whatever time I'm running LinBPQ32, right? Does this daemon do anything else? Charlie

I'm not sure if LinBPQ is a long term project or not at this point, I don't want to abandon the image because I will be playing with other things too!
