I've been trying to get diald going (again) on my system.
It used to work on RedHat 6.0 (or was it 5.2) -- but now, with RedHat
6.2, running pppd 2.3.11 (and using the latest diald, 0.99.4), I have
the problem that pppd complains about not being allowed to use the
dynamically assigned IP address when I dial in to my ISP.
If I call up pppd with the same command line as diald uses, just "by
hand", everything seems fine as long as diald is not running. If, however,
I start up diald, and then either let diald initiate the call to pppd --
or simply if I just call pppd again "by hand" -- it doesn't work.
The message I get from pppd is as follows:
"Peer is not authorized to use remote address 195.47.148.121"
(or whatever the remote address is).
Any hints?
I have the "dynamic" option in my /etc/diald.conf file -- which is otherwise
plain vanilla (see below).
