Hi, Looking for help with diald. Trying to set an old 486 up as a dial on demand router for my home network. Using official slink with 2.0.36 kernel.
Problem. diald will not automatically connect. dctrl up-request or "up" in diald.options works fine. But telnet/ftp/ping to an IP address or via name will not trigger an auto dial up. Even tried telnet to other ports. Using tcpdump, netwatch. doesn't seem to be anything going to sl0. Have debug on in diald.options and nothing written to any logs (unless of course I force up the connection). I'm not trying to do anything tricky. Have used other's working /etc/diald, but they don't work for me. After booting netstat -nr command shows: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 552 65536 0 sl0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1500 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 3584 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 552 65536 0 sl0 Please reply directly.
