Yes, /etc/diald.conf is to diald as /etc/ppp/options is to pppd.
i.e. it is global to *every* instance of diald. Personally I
put all my link specific stuff in other files and load them
from the command line with -f. As with pppd's options file
there are things that you can set in diald.conf that can't
easily be overridden.
