        Subject:        ipppd and diald problems

        I found the reason of my last problem.

        Actually, diald make a pppd start timeout (60s by
        default) because there is a conflict between my
        connect script and pppd that diald uses.

        Does someone know how diald deals with ipppd and ISDN?

        ippp0 must be configure before dial up. (see my script
        below)
        To dialup, I have to use "isdnctrl dial ippp0"

        A strange thing I noticed is that dev mode must ignore
        connect and disconnect command in diald conf file, but
        actually it doesnt !!!

        Addroute adn delroute are runs but i don't understand
        when and why.

        Ip-up and Ip-down are never run.

        How does diald route dynamically ? (how works dynamic
        option)

                It's not diald that does the routing.  Pppd handles that.
Diald uses the diald.conf file to determine what parameters to pass to pppd.

        I used dctrl. I see states Down, Close and Start_link.
        is there another one "connected" i haven't seen ?
        There is no dialing log or load (the physical link is
        not done!)

                Yeah, there's a connected state.  I don't recall if that's
the term used, though.  The START_LINK state says that diald is trying to
establish a connection.

        As you can see, I'm completely lost :) and diald is a
        very important thing on our server... 

        for informations: I use diald 0.16 from red hat6.0 rpm
        file.

                You might try using a newer version.  The most recent
version is 0.99.1.  You can get it in RPM format (along with thousands of
other programs) at rufus.w3.org; the page w/diald is
http://rufus.w3.org/linux/RPM/DByName.html
<http://rufus.w3.org/linux/RPM/DByName.html> .  You want to get the
diald-0.99.1-10 and diald-config-0.1-1 packages.
