Hi,
tap does not work with diald 99-2, neither did it with 99. The way to solve
it is to run diald with the "-daemon" command. Then it works?!
I read (for once) all the READMEs and found out that if Im using MASQ then I
should not use defaultroute (and not MASQ) and use addroute "..." and
delroute "..." ....! Why so?
Diald works as it should as it is.
I turn on MASQ in a rc script:
----------------------------------------------------------------
echo "** Making sure you have forwarding on..."
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr
# echo "** Dont let anyone in, but let everybody out..."
ipchains --flush
ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQ
----------------------------------------------------------------
And start diald in an other script with "diald &" (note & so that the script
wont get blocket).
So are there any reason for me to change the way I use diald?
And if so... how would those addroute and delroute scripts look like?
Probably of topics here (a pppd thing I think) but: Do I need the
char-major-108 special file that diald keeps asking for. And if I do how do
I create it?
And why does Linux netscape (Win netscape does not) bring up the connection,
even if I try to surf in my intranet?
Most of my filters are set as "keepup 60" except www, which is "accept 300"
and fpt ("accept 120"). But the line stays on for ever, or until the other
side throws me out! What can I do to fix this (worked with 99-1)?
Ohh I do have a keepup any with 600 as time out, but now its been online
for... more than 15 min.
Why does diald bring up the connection when I boot? Okey I know why (a DNS
lookup, 53, probably my named checking something)... but how do I "fix" it
(without locking out 53)?
And even a (Linux) machine that does not have named (uses the one on the
diald machine) not sendmail brings up the connection. Why (I have reverse
lookup and DNS for my private domain.private, so it should not cause it)?
The same machine does not bring the connection up if booted Win, and it uses
the same DNS server!
