[diald 2.0] Some bugs

Hi!

I just swapped from pppd-DialOnDemand to diald V2.0 (fetched from cvs).
There are some bugs/problems I have had. So maybe it's interested for
somebody?

BTW: Is there still any development-activity? I think it would by very sad if
such a project will die :-( If some testers are needed, please contact me!
Unfortunately my knowledge in C is very bad, so I can't help to develope
directly :-(

My enviroment:

Kernel 2.4.24
Diald 2.0 (fetched from cvs)
net-tools 1.60
route 1.98 (2001-04-15)


1. Compile error

When compiling I got the following error (I got the same error with
version 1.0):

2. TUN

I use tun as my proxy-device. When starting diald, I got the following
error:

diald[1734]: Using fifo /var/run/diald.fifo

3. Reroute from proxy to real interface

Seems that diald 2.0 (and even 0.99 and 1.0) do not know 'reroute'
anymore?
