All:

We're looking at using diald on RH6.2 and RH7.3 to manage dynamic dialup
connections to multiple sites using a modem pool, and I need to know
what limits the number of diald processes that may run.

The SLIP driver reports a max of 256 devices. When diald starts it tries
to hit tap0 through tap15 (this is before I set up modules.conf)

What limits the number of diald daemons that may run? How many may run
with the 1.0 / 1.01pre code?

Thanks!
