I'm working up a (perhaps healty) case of wall-head-smashitis. (Or
desk-head-smashitis as some may attest to). Okay, enough humor, here's the
problem:
I'm running diald 0.99-1 on Slackware 4.0 (the usual, kernel 2.2.6,
libc5...etc.) I run what I presume to be a configured diald and when I try
to connect.........nothing. No log entry, and when I monitor diald with
dctrl, NOTHING shows up in the packet queue. pppd works flawlessly AFAICT
with similar config options. I'll attach the configfiles as includes...here
are their paths:
/etc/diald.conf
/usr/local/lib/diald/diald.defs
/usr/local/lib/diald/standard.filter
Here is the output from /sbin/route after running /usr/local/sbin/diald:

And here is what syslogd puts in /var/log/messages:

Aug 19 15:38:47 zeus diald[3278]: start sl0: SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument
Lastly, here is the output from running "/sbin/ifconfig":
