I am using Diald with '/usr/bin/wvdial' as my connect script. Every time my connection lasts only 60 seconds. It is always terminated by 'connect script time out'. I have played with all the settings in standard.filter and it doesn't seem to be a problem. Can someone please help? Am I doing something fundamentally wrong by using wvdial? I have attached the following files: standard.filter /var/log/messages
# restrict 08:00:00 23:00:00 1-5 * * # up # This is a pretty complicated set of filter rules. # (These are the rules I use myself.) # # I've divided the rules up into four sections. # TCP packets, UDP packets, ICMP packets and a general catch all rule # at the end. #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Rules for TCP packets. #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # General comments on the rule set: # # In general we would like to treat only data on a TCP link as signficant # for timeouts. Therefore, we try to ignore packets with no data. # Since the shortest possible set of headers in a TCP/IP packet is 40 bytes. # Any packet with length 40 must have no data riding in it. # We may miss some empty packets this way (optional routing information # and other extras may be present in the IP header), but we should get # most of them. Note that we don't want to filter out packets with # tcp.live clear, since we use them later to speedup disconnects # on some TCP links. # # We also want to make sure WWW packets live even if the TCP socket # is shut down. We do this because WWW doesn't keep connections open # once the data has been transfered, and it would be annoying to have the link # keep bouncing up and down every time you get a document. # # Outside of WWW the most common use of TCP is for long lived connections, # that once they are gone mean we no longer need the network connection. # We don't neccessarily want to wait 10 minutes for the connection # to go down when we don't have any telnet's or rlogin's running, # so we want to speed up the timeout on TCP connections that have # shutdown. We do this by catching packets that do not have the live flag set. # --- start of rule set proper --- # When initiating a connection we only give the link 15 seconds initially. # The idea here is to deal with possibility that the network on the opposite # end of the connection is unreachable. In this case you don't really # want to give the link 10 minutes up time. With the rule below # we only give the link 15 seconds initially. If the network is reachable # then we will normally get a response that actually contains some # data within 15 seconds. If this causes problems because you have a slow # response time at some site you want to regularly access, you can either # increase the timeout or remove this rule. accept tcp 120 tcp.syn # Keep named xfers from holding the link up ignore tcp tcp.dest=tcp.domain ignore tcp tcp.source=tcp.domain # (Ack! SCO telnet starts by sending empty SYNs and only opens the # connection if it gets a response. Sheesh..) accept tcp 5 ip.tot_len=40,tcp.syn # keep empty packets from holding the link up (other than empty SYN packets) ignore tcp ip.tot_len=40,tcp.live # make sure http transfers hold the link for 2 minutes, even after they end. # NOTE: Your /etc/services may not define the tcp service www, in which # case you should comment out the following two lines or get a more # up to date /etc/services file.
