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
