Hello I've tried to set up a firewall/IP-masquerade and Diald to work. The firewall/IP-masquerade works but diald does not. I'm running SuSE 6.4 and have installed diald from Yast. The configuration files looks like this: /etc/diald.conf mode ppp connect /usr/lib/diald/connect device /dev/ttyS1 speed 115200 modem lock crtscts local 192.168.0.10 remote 192.168.0.11 defaultroute include /usr/lib/diald/standard.filter /usr/lib/diald/connect looks like this: #!/bin/sh # Copyright (c) 1996, Eric Schenk. # # This script is intended to give an example of a connection script that # uses the "message" facility of diald to communicate progress through # the dialing process to a diald monitoring program such as dctrl or diald-top. # It also reports progress to the system logs. This can be useful if you # are seeing failed attempts to connect and you want to know when and why # they are failing. # # This script requires the use of chat-1.9 or greater for full # functionality.
