There were problems with the 0.99 version of diald. You might try
to find the last in the 0.98 series and try that -- it's working for me.
There's a diald mailing list at vger.rutgers.edu. I'll dig up
subscription info for you and send it along.

Subject: [Masq] Masq & diald 0.99.1
> Since I upgraded to diald 0.99.1, I have been receiving the messages "sl0:
> xmit call when iface is down" each time traffic comes through to cause diald
> to establish the dial out link. Once the connection is online, the messages
> stop. This message is from slip.c in linux/drivers/net of the linux source.

> The problem arose after switching from version 0.16.5 to 0.99.1 I've since
> switched back as it has become annoying. I recently stumbled across a
> README.masq in the source directly indicating some things that need to be
> done via scripts to set up the routes if using with IP Masquerading. It
> hints at what needs to be done in diald.conf but no examples on what
> actually needs to be done in the scripts. I believe this change has

> linux 2.0.37 server for internet access via IP masquerading. ISP assigns
> dynamic local IP addresses. Any help would be very much appreciated. My
> diald.conf works fine with 0.16.5 and 0.99.1 except that in the latter case,
> the messages appear when a trigger is received prior to the link being
