Hi, I have a dial on demand server running FreeBSD 4.7. This also has wu-ftpd running as well. I have noticed that whe trying to FTP to the box, it takes a long time to connect (I usually have the modem switched off, but will dial if I have left it on while trying to FTP into the box). I have noticed also that Sendmail has trouble sending local mail (daily reports etc). These problems dissappear when a the ppp link is up, or I have killed the ppp process. I suspect these problems might be due to the routing table entries made by ppp (add default HISADDR). netstat -r takes forever, unless the link is up. When I do a "tcpdump -i tun0" I get 192.168.x.x traffic going to my ISP's DNS servers. What would be the best way to fix this? use PPP's firewalling, or IPFW? or is there a better way?
