I've just installed SUSE 7.2 (I'm new to LINUX) and run into a problem
with dial on demand. Everything runs ok: SQUID, APACHE, SAMBAR. I'm
also able to establish a manual ISDN connection to our provider, but
if a computer in the local network wants to access the internet, the
server does not dial.

Anybody out there who has a hint?

Thanks

You can alter/check the settings with isdnctrl (as root), 'man
isdnctrl' for more info. You need to set your values with yast if
they should survive a reboot, they'll be written to
/etc/rc.config.d/i4l.rc.config.

Thanks, I checked everything and it appears to be ok (I think,
otherwise I would not be able to get a manual connection, right?)

The default route should point to your ipppX interfacce.
The interface must bei in "dialmode=auto"
The default route must be restored after the link goes down.
