Bcc: Duncan  Haldane <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I have uploaded diald-0.16.5a-1.src.rpm, diald-0.16.5a-1.i386.rpm and
diald-config-0.16.5a-1.i386.rpm for RedHat 5.x (glibc) to incoming.redhat.com.
(it should be soon moved to the contrib section of ftp.redhat.com)


This package of  Eric Schenk's diald (demand dialing daemon for IP links over
phone lines) includes the patch to fix the non-functional dctrl (diald's
graphical control utility) posted to the linux-diald mailing list by Luca
Olivetti.  (This is an important patch to dctrl from the 0.16 patch-4 release 
of diald that appears to have been inadventently omitted from the patch-5
release.)  

Otherwise, this package is identical to the contributed rpm package
diald-0.16.5-201, in which dctrl was broken on some machines (because without
the patch,dctrl can try to write to the /etc/diald.ctl FIFO before it has had 
time to be established)
