Could be :)  I don't use his script.

Did you remember to start diald using the '-daemon' setting?  If you leave
that off it will display the problem you are seeing.  I was sure this is
covered in the FAQ file.

For example if you look on my machine:
in the init file you'd see:
   daemon /usr/sbin/dialmon -pppp0 -b49333 -rISP1

in the dialmon.conf file you'd see:
        ddconf  ISP1    "/usr/sbin/diald -daemon"

It's the line in dialmon.conf that you have to worry about.

> I am still using diald-0.16.5. Could that be the reason?

No, it seems to work perfectly with 0.16.5.  It's 0.98.3 that gives me
headaches. :)

HTH,
