Been wrestling with this for about a week.  Started running 2.2.2 and
did a fresh reinstall to 2.2.5.  All seems to work fine except it dials
and apperently does DNS lookups for apperently no reason.  I have
removed the -q option on Sendmail, and disabled Sendmail altogether. 
When I unplug the ethernet cable from the Win95 machine, or dialup via
its own modem / DUN it doesn't cause the UNIX box to dial in.  However
when the Win95 is plugged into the ethernet and running nothing more
then explorer and systay it will dial in with in 15 mins usually
sooner.  I did notice that if I dial in with the Win95 box and do
NOTHING it sends about 250 bytes a min and receives about 15K.  Could
this have something to do with it?

Also at 2am it runs whatever events are installed be default and this
too (without win95 box on ethernet cable) cause the Unix box to dial in.

The network is setup as flows.

10.0.0.1  Freebsd machine called quake.computer.net
10.0.0.2  Win95 machine called pent200.computer.net
10.0.0.3  Win95 machine not yet on the network
207.50.192.4  Primary DNS at my ISP
207.50.194.7  Secondary DNS at my ISP
207.50.192.1  Gateway (not in ANY of my configs is this part of the
problem?)


My dialup account dynamically assigns ip can get static if needed.


Windows 95 side...

Under network tcp/ip properties for the NIC.

Assigned ip   10.0.0.2
gateway       10.0.0.1
dns   primary 207.50.192.4
dns secondary 207.50.194.7
host          pent200
domain        computer.net
domainsuffix  computer.net

I also have dialup adapter and tcp/ip for that.
Server assigned ip 


Here is part of the /etc/ppp.log file where it dials in doing nameserver
lookups (near as I can tell).

Is this problem something funky with my WIN95 Dun?  (Running ISDN
patched DUN)
Or is something wrong with my Unix setup?

Thanks for any insight you could provide.
