I downloaded it and had a quick look (I didn't see the bit on intervals, so perhaps I was too quick), and saw that it required slip support to be compiled in the kernel. While I could compile SLIP support into the kernel, I doubt SLIP support is required in order to do what I want... I think diald is aimed at dial-on-demand, where my connection is permenant (or meant to be). -- Brian May <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
