Hi All,

I have been following the diald-examples man page to help me setup diald.

I have a working ppp-on script that I use to connect manually to my ISP but 
as yet I have failed to get diald up and running.

I observe two problems, which are 100% reproducible.

1)      When I start diald (having already tailed the messages file) and 
then try to connect to a web site from my browser get the messages:

Feb 29 17:55:01 localhost diald[26143]: Running connect (pid = 26164).
Feb 29 17:55:01 localhost modprobe: can't locate module char-major-108
Feb 29 17:55:01 localhost pppd[26164]: The remote system is required to 
authenticate itself but I
Feb 29 17:55:01 localhost pppd[26164]: couldn't find any secret (password) 
which would let it use an IP address.
Feb 29 17:55:01 localhost diald[26143]: Connect script failed.
Feb 29 17:55:02 localhost diald[26143]: Delaying 30 seconds before clear to 
dial.

The modem does not even go Off Hock.

2)      The next problem is that once I have run diald and killed it (due 
to the problem above) and then try to manually run ppp-on to connect to my 
ISP I receive these error messages:

Feb 29 18:10:37 localhost kernel: PPP: version 2.3.7 (demand dialling)
         Feb 29 18:10:37 localhost kernel: PPP line discipline registered.
         Feb 29 18:10:37 localhost kernel: registered device ppp0
         Feb 29 18:10:37 localhost pppd[26185]: The remote system is 
required to authenticate itself but I
         Feb 29 18:10:37 localhost pppd[26185]: couldn't find any secret 
(password) which would let it use an IP address.

Once I have reboot the system my manual ppp-on works fine again.

The contents of diald.conf is:

debug 0x0008
mode ppp
connect /etc/ppp/ppp-on.diald
device /dev/ttyS0
speed 115200
modem
lock
crtscts
local 192.168.0.1
remote 192.168.0.2
dynamic
defaultroute
include /usr/lib/diald/standard.filter

Any ideas? 8�)
