Diald routing problems

Hi all,

I have IP MASQ and DIALD running on a linux server. This all works
wonderfully - sort of, but I have a problem with my routing.

Currently I have m localnet set to my local IP network and localhost
as normal. I also have defaultroute set up with diald so 2 more
routes are added when it is active - namely a route to the ISP at the
other end of the modem and a default route with uses this as the
gateway.

The problem is that any IP packets destined to this server from
anotehr machine on the local network triggers the modem to connect.
For instance telnetting to the server starts the connection. Also
typing route to see the routing table does the same thing.

Any help in setting up my routing to stop this would be greatly
appreciated.

If replies could be mirrored to my email as well I would be grateful:

Thanks,
Dave.
