Hi all
I feel really stupit not being able getting diald to work. I consulted
diald HOWTO and diald man page, which by the way I found irritating for
a newbie like me ( or should I say idiot ? )
I followed Tom Yates advice, but still nothing happens when I request ip
traffic on a client. Here my LAN topography (very simple though) :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Linux RedHat 5.1 ( 2.0.34 )
------------- -------
server 192.168.1.1--------- modem -----
ISP
------------- -------

Linux RedHat 5.1( 2.0.34 ) Winblows NT WS 4.0
------------------ ------------------
workstation 1 192.168.1.2 workstation2 192.168.1.3
------------------ ------------------
IP masquerading and ISP connection work fine. Telnet, ftp also.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
All I want is the basic feature of diald. Dial the ISP upon workstation
request and shuting downthe link at idle.
Could someone give me a step by step guide, written as for a 10 year old
child ( starting after installing the rpm package)??
I would also appreciate diald-examples man pages mailed to me.
I hope, I do not bother you too much but as you might have experienced
yourself, a newbie life in linux can be tough since the HOWTOS are
designed to be used by rather advanced hackers. I compare them to a book
which teaches you "how to drive a car" by reading a book :)
Thank you so much
