Actually, I take that back. It takes about two minutes. Which, I'm sure you
would agree, is next to useless.

Subject: Delay in start of dialling...
Folks,
I have tried to configure diald. Here is my setup:
o RedHat 5.0 with 2.0.32 kernel, no updates applied
o IPMasq is working correctly
o My internal network is 192.168.0.x
o I use a dynamic IP address from the ISP.
o BIND is configured and running correctly. It has one zone for my internal
network (overkill. I know:) and caches for the rest of the world.
o Latest diald RPMs from an official RedHat mirror site (0.16.5a)
At the moment, I have shell scripts that start and stop the PPP link. These
scripts, use the configuration from the network control-panel applet
provided with RedHat.
When I have had diald configured and running, it seems to take over 45
seconds to start dialling. Is this normal? The Linux machine is only a
486-100 with 32Mb of RAM but it is hardly doing anything.
Does someone here have a similar configuration that works who would be we
willing to share their diald configration files?
Thanks and regards,
Mark Harrison
