Rodney,
I'm not familiar with the tcpdump utility so I've attached the output from
doing a ping and then a telnet. I would appreciate it if you can point me in
the right direction for understanding the tool. I've also attached the
contents of my /var/log/messages file from the time I did the telnet, in
case that helps any.
I was slightly mistaken previously. The machine is indeed forcing the
dial-up connection up. But not until after 2/3 minutes. I suppose this could
be because the box is running an internal DNS server, and it's waiting for
that to time out before trying the next one in the sequence (ISP DNS
server).
Thanks,
Richard
