Clx packet dxcluster PacketCluster nodes have been available since around 1986. The original software was written by Dick Newell, AK1A, and is running under DOS.

To the outside user, commands and features are mostly identical, remote PacketCluster nodes, which can be networked, don't see the difference between a generic PacketCluster node and CLX. So it fits well into an established network of PacketCluster nodes. CLX is not an user application, it is a network node software. As such it is not of much use for the individual amateur. SysOPs of PacketCluster nodes with some experience on both PacketCluster and Linux will find this application interesting. CLX is distributed as binaries and updates. 5.04
