It may be that Frame is also making a DNS query to look up a host
name, and this is causing traffic to be sent out the SLIP interface.
Just a thought.

I'm working on a new version which will have much, much finer grained
control over exactly what sorts of packets will cause the link to be
brought up, as well as being able to filter traffic sent and received.
It may be this could be an eventual solution to your problem.

You could also disable the dial-on-demand feature by using the
DISABLECALL paramater on the duioctl command.  This means you'd have
to bring the link up manually.
