I have just been having a play. Sometimes DNS (53), sometimes WWW (80) go
missing.
Example. Went to www.anandtech.com. Wait for page to load and link to go
down. Clicked on a news item (K6 goes copper) ... diald redials ... looks
like the DNS is cached locally. Sends out request .... no response ..
times out ... disconnects.
It never fails for a first dial, just subsequent reconnects to the same
site, or maybe other sites, and only intermittently .... it works prob 70%
of the time.
Hmmm
How do I get tcpdump to capture what is going out, since I have to wait for
ppp0 to be up before it will monitor?
