This is a package of the stable diald-0.16-5a by Eric Schenk. Diald has a new maintainer, and is now appearing as diald-0.98 or later, This package is renamed to diald16 so it will be available until a stable new diald-1.0 is released. The purpose of diald is to make it transparently appear that you have a permanent connection to a remote site. Diald sets up a "proxy" device which stands in for the physical connection to a remote site. It then monitors the proxy, waiting for packets to arrive. When interesting packets arrive it will attempt to establish the physical link to the remote site using either SLIP or PPP, and if it succeeds it will forward traffic from the proxy to the physical link. As well, diald will monitor traffic once the physical link is up, and when it has determined that the link is idle, the remote connection is terminated. The criteria for bringing the link up and taking it down are configurable at run time, and are based upon the type of traffic passing over the link. Kudos to: Karl O. Pinc -- The Meme Factory, Inc http://www.meme.com This release includes an important patch for dctrl (the diald graphical control utility) that is taken from diald-0.16.4, but omitted in diald-0.16.5 (thanks to Luca Olivetti for diagnosing the "too fast" dctrl problem in diald-0.16.5). This package is otherwise identical to diald-0.16.5-201.
