We've got diald working fine.
Diald 0.16.4, RH 5.0. AOK. Very reliable in fact.
However... we had lots of problems with our hardware (serial ports) and
ended up changing them, after that - no problems. I'm not a hardware guru,
but perhaps there are some "buggy" 16550's out there.
Reason for fiddling with our hardware? No budget (surprise...), and boxes
full of old 486 m/boards, multi i/o cards, hard disks, you know - all the
good(?) stuff that linux is meant to make useable again!!
