Thanks. Now, is there a way I can have diald ignore ping packets destined for a particular host? I want to run ping to keep the ISP from timing out, but I don't want the packets to stop the link from being taken down by this end. I put ignore icmp ip.daddr=203.12.22.10 in /etc/diald/diald.conf but this does not seem to be having the effect; the link has been idle long enough to be hung up, and the only traffic (according to tcpdump) is some inter-named stuff and the icmp traffic. thanks, Hamish -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
