Linux dialup

There is still one small problem with using mserver on a Redhat 6.0 system.
Mserver is set up to use ipfwadm for masquerading - not ipchains.  You could
go and change it, or you could setup your masquerading manually.

The Masqdialer daemon home page is:
http://cpwright.villagenet.com/mserver

This page has all of the stuff you need.

Basic Setup:
There is a daemon on the linux box called mserver.  It has a mserver.conf in
/etc that controls its setup.

A client piece is set up on each machine, that controls when to start the
ppp connection, and when to shut it down.  It has the ability to serve
multiple machines, and to keep track of who is connected.

A pretty good piece of software.

Rich,
	At the last meeting, we were talking about using the diald daemon on
a
Linux internet 'gateway' box, and you mentioned another program like Masq
something-or-other.  Could you please give us the name of that program and
where we could start looking for it?

Thanks,

Gene Dascher
