Well... from the documenations, it seems that diald.options, and
diald.conf is missing. Everything else seems to be in the right place except
for those two.
Secondly, I tried to get it to work from my little editing and it does
not work at all. Heck.. I fired up lynx and got this message: Alert!: Unable
to connect to remote host. Now... what I understand, diald's purpose is to
make a connection either by ISDN or 56K modem when you do TCP/IP query from the
box.
So... is there some areas that need to be configured beside diald to
make the system work properly? I am sort of lost here and I am considering
un-installing the diald and do a installation by source instead to make it work
since the debianized version do not work and the documenations from the diald's
website says quite a few things differently here as well. I am not trying to
put down Debian. Quite the opposite but this is the first gripes I came across
with this one since I have used Debian for past few months and had no problems
setting up few different areas. This diald is the new project and this baffled
me. :)
