Ah, sorry for that.

Wampes was written by Dieter Deyke, dk5sg.
It is a package for packet-radio. It includes a program like
ka9q-net that allows logging into the unix machine over ax.25,
NET/ROM and telnet. It includes a convers-server, bbs program
and some other utils.

This is wampes-921019.txt from ucsd.edu:
========================================================================
wampes-921019.tar.Z is a compressed tar archive of WAMPES, which is a
NET/NOS port to HP-UX. It currently supports HP 9000 series 300, 400,
700, and 800 computers, running HP-UX 08.xx. I tried to port the
software to SunOS, and it compiles there, but I did not have enough time
to really test it.

WAMPES was also ported to Linux running on a 386 by Olaf, dc1ik. You
should have gcc 2.2.2d with the inet-library in libc.a and tcp/ip coming
with 0.98.x compiled into the kernel to use all features of WAMPES.
Comments and questions about the Linux version of WAMPES please to Olaf
Erb, <erb@insu1.etec.uni-karlsruhe.de>

You should unpack this tar archive from the /tcp directory to make sure
all files go to the right place.

wampes-921019.tar.Z and all followups should go into
/hamradio/packet/tcpip/wampes on ucsd.edu.
