Subject:   iijppp dialing when I run tcsh ??????
Message-ID:  <199512221320.NAA22340@wbsmail.zipmail.co.uk>

On my PC at home I am running FreeBSD 2.1R and iijppp with auto-dial 
enabled. Everything works fine if I use sh/csh/bash but as soon as I 
run tcsh (which was my login shell) iijppp dials !

The shell will then only come up after a connection is established.

I have tried setting a dfilter to deny icmp packets and although this 
stops it dialing the shell then takes ages to come up so it is 
obviously trying to send an icmp packet somewhere.

I have looked at the source for tcsh (6.05.00) and I can't see 
anything but I wondered if it is trying to contact a non existant 
rlogin host to determine the term type ?????

Anyone have any ideas as I much prefer tcsh to the rest.

Cheers

Phil
