I removed ...not sure, but the other month when I had similar problems I noticed that "tcpdump -i" was of no use as the interface wasn't up yet so tcpdump didn't monitor the ppp line, or the line was up and ready allright but the culprit of bringing it up had vanished before I could type tcpdump:( IIRC I switched off demand dailing temporarily, brought up ppp, started tcpdump and waited for 15 minutes, and bingo: DNS:) -- groetjes, carel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
