As of version 0.46 Andreas has resolved the problems below.

----------------------------------------------------------
diald has  some problems:

1. The first packet is lost.  The reason seems to be that
it does not know anything about ppp. It just knows about eth* devices. 
(Patch is under testing and will be made available.)
This shouldnt stop you from using the patch however.

2. For German Telekom users the cost model is not accounted for:
We get charged at the begining of every minute; and so the idle
timer must really check the last seconds of the end the minute.
( Will fix this in the future as well).


A Hint:
-	in /etc/diald/disconnect you must bring up the ethernet dev again 	
with a real ip; you can use any of the private LAN addresses.
I use 193.16.205.197 

bye,
	Andreas
