[Xastir] xastir and aprsd

Hi all,

I have a question.  I currently run aprsd on my Linux router to feed 
xastir on multiple machines around my house.  I currently do not run 
any RF.  That is about to change as I added a DRSI card to my router 
and hooked up a radio.  I now have an active AX.25 device on ax0.  Now 
for the question, should I bind the AX.25 device to the aprsd server or 
to xastir?  I do want to provide relay service for the local hams as I 
sit on top of the highest location for about 50 miles.

It appears to me that I can probably do this with either program but I 
wonder what others have done.  It would be silly to run RF on both 
aprsd and xastir so I'm curious as to which option others have selected 
any why.

Thanks,
Dana  N1OFZ
