I've been using diald for a while now.
About a month ago I set-up a caching name server (the one that comes with RH5.1)
on the diald box. Up to last sunday morning everything worked fine.
In the evening, however, as I tried to use internet - my modem dialed out and
made connection with my ISP, but I got no network connectivity. I've changed
nothing for at least 3 days before this and everything was working fine untill
then.
When I tried to connect from the diald box itself, I did not get through either.
In this case I traced my packets going out from the diald box on the ethernet
interface(routing?!?!). I've tried dialing directly with pppd. Same result. This
went on for about a day. At the end I stopped "named" service and suddenly my
connection started working again.
Anyone has a clue as to what really happend?
I cannot understand what influence on routing can "named" have?
Also, can someone explain how routing on the diald box should be set-up?
(Default route, etc.)
