Hi all, I have some problems with diald, certainly related to my setup, but after spending 3 days trying and RTFMing, I thought you can help me. My setup : - Intel Pentium 90 - Zyxel 2864i on my ISDN line - RedHat Linux 5.0 with custom-compiled kernel 2.0.34 - ppp rpm version 2.3.2 - diald version 0.16.4 (I think, or is it pl 5 ?) I have had a working connection to my provider using PPP. Both sides (remote & local) use dynamic IP addresses. I have tried to automate this connection with diald, but I get lots of very strange problems. I did enable the debug, to see what happen. So far, I am able to make the connect happen, but after a disconnect, my machine act very strangely. - /var/log/ppp.log and /var/log/messages don't show the ppp / diald disconnection - a reconnect try doesn't do anything - init 6 does nothing - shutdown -r now does nothing - su - is impossible - ctrl-alt-del doesn't trigger the shutdown (it's working in normal cond.) - but I can mainly continue to work from the open terminals To reboot the machine, I use "shutdown -r -n now" which avoid init and makes it itself. Kind of brutal way, but still better than the reset button :-) No I would like to see a working setup example, for PPP with dynamic addresses, comprising : /etc/ppp/options /etc/ppp/chatscript (for your modem, I know I will have to adapt it) /etc/diald.conf OK so far. Thanks in advance for your help. Charles - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-diald" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
