I've just installed DialD (version 0.16.5) on my system and I'm getting the
following entries in /var/log/ppp.log on my system:

diald:  Using fifo /var/run/diald.fifo
diald:  Starting diald version 0.16.5
diald:  Could not get socket to do packet monitoring: Socket type not
supported
diald:  Diald is dying with code 1
....

I've run strace against diald and the only additional clue as to what's
happening is the following strace lines:

socket(PF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0) = 3
fcntl(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
connect(3, {sun_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/dev/log"}, 16) = -1 EPROTOTYPE
(Protocol wrong type for socket)
close(3) = 0

My /dev/log is:

srw-rw-rw- 1    0    0    0 Jul  8 10:58 /dev/log

Any ideas what might be the cause of the problem above?  I've read the FAQ
and whatever docs I could find.

If you have any ideas/thoughts, please let me know.

Alternatively, I've just downloaded 0.99.1 and I'm going to give that a
try....

Regards,
Kevin
