Hello there,
I tried to use diald for firing my ppp connection. The problem is that
the link won't come up:
1) Remote statrts pppd as it should, and it sits quietly on the line
2) Local diald (version 0.99.1) is fired like:
diald /dev/pts/5 mode ppp -f /etc/diald.conf -- nodetach debug kdebug 1
(yes, is a pseudo terminal. And yes, I try to run diald over a net
connection. Don't ask more ;) )
...with a /etc/diald.conf containing:
debug 0x0008
local 1.2.3.4
remote 5.6.7.8
After firing diald i got a nice & shiny proxy sl0 iface:
sl0 Link encap:Serial Line IP
inet addr:1.2.3.4 P-t-P:5.6.7.8 Mask:255.255.255.255

Oct 19 17:12:39 diald[4574]: Diald initial setup completed.
(first lines i can guess: Yes, I don't an Ethertap device/module. Then
i don't know what is diald complaining about sl0/what it tries to to
w/ it )
The result is that diald makes absolutely NO attempt to bring up the
link whatever i try to do. Remote logs confirm there are no ppp frames
received.
Any hint how i can nail this down ? I use 2.2.12 w/ SLIP & PPP
compiled in.
Cheers,
Florian.
