Hi all,
New to the list, new to diald...I need a point in the right direction...
I am trying to customize diald.conf to only dial on DNS requests that my
diald server forwards out to an internet DNS...but hold the connection if
any traffic is there.
Currently what happens is - from a non-dialed state, I issue a ping
www.freshmeat.net
Diald picks the line up and makes the connection, I get pings for a while
(about 30 seconds) then the line hangs up....which the way I have it set
right now should happen (the disconnect I mean). However...from the file I
have, I can't tell what I need to do to keep the connection alive if icmp
packets are moving out over the connection...
What I'm looking for is a detailed doc on what the directives in the
diald.conf file are and do. What I'm curious about also, is whether or not
I can add rules that are not covered in the configuration file...or perhaps
make some rules more specific. So that I can set up diald to hold the
connection as long as packets for service ABC are flowing (where ABC is any
service I specify), but it will only dial on a DNS lookup.
Any ideas?
