I've got a RH 6.2 server with a modem running pppd. The pppd is set to dial out when an internet connection is needed by someone on the LAN. I can connect to the server via SSH from a machine on the LAN, but when I do, it dials out, which I don't want it to do. Hopefully, this isn't a quirk of SSH. I imagine this has something to do with the way the name recognition and such is set up. I'm not running DHCP or DNS on this machine. It has a hosts file that identifies all the machines on the LAN. Its resolv.conf specifies the internet nameservers of my ISP, as in nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. Can someone with more knowledge of this area than I have assist in helping me set up this machine so that SSH doesn't cause a dialout, but the machine can still be used as I described above?
