Hi, I've now worked one week to get my diald to work, but my configuration still seems to have some bugs. What I wanted to do, is to get diald to dial out via modem everytime I send a http request that cannot be resolved from the proxy. I use to start diald from the commandline; /var/log/messages says diald setup was succesfully, but when I run ifconfig the tap0 device is not listed, as well as it doesn't show up in the routing table... Of course, I configured my kernel with ethertap support and when I try to start tap0 manually (via ifconfig tap0 ipaddr up), it's showing up in ifconfig... Has anyone a suggestion how to fix this? Cheers, ;) Chris debug output: Apr 23 18:02:19 Snoopy diald[1146]: Proxy device established on interface tap0 Apr 23 18:02:19 Snoopy diald[1146]: start tap0: Establishing routes for tap0 Apr 23 18:02:19 Snoopy diald[1146]: running '/sbin/route add default metric 0 netmask 0.0.0.0 dev tap0' Apr 23 18:02:19 Snoopy diald[1146]: SIGCHLD[1]: pid 1147 system, status 1792 Apr 23 18:02:19 Snoopy diald[1146]: Changed snoop device to tap0 Apr 23 18:02:19 Snoopy diald[1146]: Diald initial setup completed.
