Or alternatively, download http://diald.unix.ch/diald-0.98.3.tar.gz and install
that (I don't remember if there are warnings).  Note, I found that using the
slip proxy in the 0.98.3 release to be buggy (diald dies), but the ethertap
proxy support seems to work fine, providing you build ethertap directly into
the kernel (I had problems when I built it as a module), and create the
appropriate /dev/tap{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} nodes.  This is with a 2.2.3 kernel
built on my router box (Pentium 90 Mhz with 48 meg of memory), with the net
utilties upgraded to 1.50.

For both the 0.16.5 and the 0.98.3 releases, 2.[21].x kernels, and all of the
releases of nettools that I recall, I get syslog entries of the form:

Mar 19 14:44:34 tinman diald[2749]: Nonzero exit status (7) on command '/sbin/route 
add 207.244.95.150 metric 0  dev tap0'
Mar 19 14:44:35 tinman diald[2749]: Nonzero exit status (7) on command '/sbin/route 
add default metric 0  netmask 0.0.0.0 dev tap0'

These seem harmless, but probably indicates some tuning is needed for 2.[12].x
kernels.
