It sounds like you are missing either "order hosts,bind" from the =
/etc/hosts.conf file or your systems ip address and hostname aren't in =
the /etc/hosts file.=20
I would be the upgrade overwrote one of those two files. =20
To bad redhat doesn't allow choosing between diald and dip for =
establishing connections. It would even be handy if they at least =
included a diald rpm...

Subject: RedHat 4.0, diald, and PPP 2.2.0f
Hi
I recently upgraded a working diald and PPP 2.2.0f from RedHat 3.0.3 to=20
RedHat 4.0. Much to my chagrin, though, it no longer works. It dials out =
and makes the connection, but no traffic passes through. I tried=20
telnetting to my host using the numeric address, but nothing happened.=20
After about 1 minute my connection closes up, and diald restarts the=20
call. I've also tried this without diald (just running the script) and=20
get the same results. The stickler is this all worked before=20
(flawlessly?) and now it no longer works.
Any ideas guys? For the record, I had kernel 2.0.21 when I installed RH=20
4.0, and after a recompile I'm still using it.
As always, thanks for any help you can provide.
