Jeff,
put the config option 'debug 1' in your diald config files somewhere.
Then put something like
local2.* /var/log/diald.log
in /etc/syslog.conf.
Then restart diald and syslog to reload the config files.
This will cause diald to dump all filter matching to the file
/var/log/diald.log, which you can simply take a look at to see what is
causing diald to bring the link up. You will get lines that look
roughly like:
Aug 27 15:21:30 servername diald[1234]: filter accepted rule XX proto
YY len ZZ blah blah blah....
I took a quick look, and it appears that the rule 'XX' refers to
filter rule number XX. The rules are numbered in order as they are
encountered by diald in the config files.
Also, the end of the line in the log appears to list the ip number and
port of the source and destination machines, which you can use to
figure out the protocol.
-Chris
p.s. Once you figure out the right rules and get your problem fixed,
be sure to take the debug options back out - they will generate a LOT
of logs..
