I have switched from diald16-0.16.5a-2.i386.rpm to
diald-0.99.1-2.i386.rpm on a Redhat 6.2 box.
I have some problems:
1. No more dialdc
-----------------
On the previous release there was the dialdc program which I used to
connect from a cron command. How can I get the same result?
2. The program dctrl does not get the default value
---------------------------------------------------
According to the manual page it should use the default value
/etc/diald/diald.ctl, but it does not work. To get it working one must
connect explicitly specifing the queue.
Any suggestions?
3. Some connections never end due to odd packets
------------------------------------------------
On some connections appear igmp packets, that are sent every 30 seconds.
I don't know where these packets come from. There is a way to tell diald
to ignore igmp packets or to avoid this kind of traffic?
BTW IGMP stands for Internet Group Management Protocol (rfc 1122).
I had the problem with the previous release of diald as well.
4. Some connections are kept after the end
------------------------------------------
When I get some sites like 64.28.67.57 (images.slashdot.org), the
traffic survives also after I have closed Netscape. The packets continue
to be exchanged endlessly, so that there is no way to have the session
closed by diald for timeout.
I had the problem with the previous release of diald as well.
