I'm new to UNIX, using RedHat 6.0
I just finished compiling & installing a new kernel 2.2.12
   both slip & ppp added.
Got pppd scripts ppp-on and ppp-off working.
Got my 5 machine internal lan working, with IP Masq.
   <Not yet trying to get them to work, just the masq machine itself>
OK, now I want a auto dialer.

Well get diald 0.99.1
   I've run make and Make install.
   changed my ppp-on script as stated in diald-examples.man
   created a /etc/diald.conf

Now I assume I put 

   "/usr/sbin/diald" in  "/etc/rc.d/rc.local"

So far so good.  I set logging on.
Initially I received a message saying connect : connect not found.
removed the word connect from the connect script.

Now the script runs but the modem doesn't dial even though the messages
show up in the log.  Which is followed by failed will retry in 30
seconds.

/dev/modem is a symbolic link to /dev/ttyS1

/etc/diald/connect:
`/usr/sbin/chat -v "" atdt9346301 "CONNECT"`

/usr/sbin/ppp-on:
pppd /dev/modem connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v "" atdt9346301 "CONNECT"'

/etc/diald:
mode ppp
connect /etc/diald/connect
device /dev/modem
speed 115200
modem
local 192.168.0.201
remote 192.168.0.202
dynamic
defaultroute
include /usr/lib/diald/standard.filter
accounting-log /var/log/diald.log
fifo /etc/diald.ctl

Though this may be obvious, I'm using ppp with pap authentication.

My lan uses 192.168.0.1 thru 192.168.0.5 for my machines.

Please help.
