Greetings,
I've installed diald on a client's Slackware 7.0 machine. The
kernel is 2.2.13, and pppd 2.3.10. I have both PPP and SLIP compiled
directly into the kernel, and not installed as modules. Here's my
problem: diald will start, and cause modprobe to complain that it cannot
find some tap* modules -- but it appears to start up ok. A network
request is made for it to dial, and it does start dialing. It appears to
dial in, and log in just fine -- but at that point I get a bunch of
strange sl0 errors, and it fails to finish the connection. Below is an
excerpt from my /var/log/messages:
