My network (pure IP, no WINS) of a dozen Windows machines and a Linux (Slackware 7, ppp-2.3.10) configured with Masquerading, DNS and Qmail. Dial-on-demand seems to dial whenever connection is needed or not. It hangs up sometimes, but it does not happen very often. For example, right now it is connected but linux:~$ netstat --inet Active Internet connections (w/o servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 126 linux.homerubber:telnet nt.homerubber.com:1519 ESTABLISHED which is a regular LAN connection. Machines linux.homerubber.com and nt.homerubber.com are in the DNS (192.168.0.x class network) and are resolved by the local DNS no problem. Where should I start digging in order to solve this problem of unwanted dialups? Could Qmail be causing it? I am currently reading networking HOW-TO's in a hope to find an answer...
