For dynamic assigned ip addresses, your diald.conf should look something
like this...
remote 199.233.75.5
dynamic
defaultroute
I also had to specify a -reroute line to keep diald from hanging up
when the call was initiated by an ftp request. To get rid of the
proxyarp message in your ppp.log, add a line like the following:
pppd_options noproxyarp
I also had to add noauth to my pppd_options, but can't remember
why.
Here's my /etc/diald/diald.options file...
---------------------------------------------------------------
mode ppp
pppd-options noauth noproxyarp
connect /etc/diald/connect
device /dev/ttyS0
speed 115200
modem
lock
crtscts
local 192.168.1.1
remote 192.168.1.2
dynamic
strict-forwarding
defaultroute
-reroute
include /etc/diald/standard.filter
--------------------------------------------------------------
Seems to work ok for me. Hope this helps.
Mike
