Hi Pete

I wrote those filters but didn't work out.  Bellow is the default section of
ppp.conf:

default:
 set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
 set log +tcp/ip
 set device /dev/cuaa0
 set speed 115200
 disable lqr
 deny lqr
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT \
           OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
 set timeout 300
 set ifaddr 205.161.189.1/0 205.161.189.2/0 255.255.255.0
 add default HISADDR
 set reconnect 3 20
 allow users eduardo
 set server +3000 diagnostico
#
# If we don't want ICMP and DNS packets to keep the connection alive:
#
    set filter alive 0 deny icmp
    set filter alive 1 deny udp src eq 53
    set filter alive 2 deny udp dst eq 53
    set filter alive 3 permit 0 0
#
#
# And we don't want ICMPs to cause a dialup:
    set filter dial 0 deny icmp
    set filter dial 1 permit 0 0

# or any TCP SYN or RST packets (badly closed TCP channels):
     set filter dial 2 deny 0 0 tcp syn finrst
# DNS lookups
     set filter dial 3 deny udp src eq 53
     set filter dial 4 deny udp dst eq 53
     set filter dial 5 permit 0/0 0/0

# DNS lookups from Windows machines
     set filter dial 6 deny udp src eq 137 # NetBIOS name service 
     set filter dial 7 deny udp src eq 138 # NetBIOS datagram service 
     set filter dial 8 deny udp src eq 139 # NetBIOS session service 
     set filter dial 9 deny udp dst eq 137 # NetBIOS name service 
     set filter dial 10 deny udp dst eq 138 # NetBIOS datagram service 
     set filter dial 11 deny udp dst eq 139 # NetBIOS session service 

And here is the log of the unexpectedly dialing:

Sep 22 08:21:45 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: Phase: PPP Started (auto mode).
Sep 22 08:22:16 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: TCP/IP: DIAL UDP: 205.161.189.1:137
---> 205.161.189.255:137
Sep 22 08:22:16 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: Phase: bundle: Establish
Sep 22 08:22:16 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: Phase: deflink: closed -> opening
Sep 22 08:22:16 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: TCP/IP: OUT UDP: 205.161.189.1:137
---> 205.161.189.255:137
Sep 22 08:22:16 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: Phase: deflink: Connected!
Sep 22 08:22:16 BSDincep ppp[1262]: tun0: Phase: deflink: opening -> dial 

What I see is that the packet that triggers the dialing has ip addresses that
are used for negotiating between the local and the remote system:

set ifaddr 205.161.189.1/0 205.161.189.2/0 255.255.255.0

And that these packets appear almost inmediately I run ppp -auto -nat myisp.

Again my question is:

Who is sending this packet and how can I dfilter it? or is there another way?
