Rdiald is a networking application that permits users within a local network to start dial-up connections.
rdiald is a useful application that provides users with the ability to initiate dialup connections within a local network. This application is particularly valuable for home networks since it allows users to connect to a freely-configurable set of internet service providers on the server where rdiald is running.
One of the most impressive features of rdiald is that it allows multiple users to be online simultaneously. Additionally, the connection isn't terminated until the last user goes offline. This means that users don't have to worry about being bumped off the connection prematurely.
Users are also allowed to execute any commands that have been pre-defined on the server. They can also hang up as soon as these commands have finished without any issues.
In the latest release of rdiald, version X, there are a few notable enhancements to the application. Firstly, there has been an improvement in handling multiple clients, particularly during the hang-up phase. Secondly, there is a new '-i' command-line option that allows users to bind to a specific interface only. This feature can be particularly useful for users who have several interfaces available. Finally, there has been a change in the detection of a newly established dial-up link. This is particularly significant as a script that is started from ip-up is now telling rdiald when the link is up. As a result, a more granular level of control as to when the link availability is broadcast to clients is now available.
All in all, the latest release of rdiald is a very solid update to an already impressive application. Its ability to allow multiple users to be online simultaneously and provide end-to-end control will undoubtedly be welcomed by many users.
