Hi all!
I'm new with diald, so perhaps I'll write some
stupid things! Excuse me in advance ;-)
Ok! I've installed diald on a Red Hat 6.0 linux box.
It seems to run well: with all filters I set up (in standard.filter),
I'm able to start the connection only when there is TCP traffic on
eth0 (I've been able to stay quiet diald during DNS lookups).
But I'd like to substitute completely our company "Wingate" system
with Linux so my first think was about diald & dialmon.
I just compiled dialmon (and installed dialm on Linux and the client
for Win98). It seems to be able to drive diald connections via dialm,
but during my experiments (with a modem not connected to the line) when
I try a "UP LINK" and soon after a "DOWN LINK", I obtain that diald
remains to try the connection indefinitively. WHY? I'd like to
make a system which is able to START and DOWN connections at user command,
just with my old Wingate. So I think my problem is some "timeout" paramater
in a config file.
Can you help me?
Many thanks for your replies.
