Greetings.
Yes, the aprsisserver plugin will more or less do what you want. All you need to do on the server-side instance of YAAC is add the plugin.
On the client side, you need to create a port of type APRS-IS and specify the host name as the IP address of your server system by typing it in (instead of picking a standard hostname from the list), and use the default port number 14580. Basically, the plugin on the "server" makes it act (sort of) like a Tier 2 backbone server (like the ones you would get with the noam.aprs2.net hostname), so other systems can connect to it the way they would connect to the Tier 2 backbone.
If you don't know what the IP address of your "server" system is, create a command prompt window on the "server" and type "ifconfig -a" (on a Linux system) or "ipconfig" (on a Microsoft Windows system). This should display your system's numeric IP address (a group of 4 numbers typically like 192.168.1.100, and the periods between them are important).
Hope this helps.

I have YAAC set up on a raspberry pi, and I'd like to use YAAC on another machine to view the data. It looks like the aprsisserver plugin will achieve this. I've installed it but can't find any config options or information on how to connect the client machine to the server.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
