Topic: Which deamon does this

[ronnie_dk]

Hi there .
A tiny problem - can I configure this in any configfile on SME6.01 (incl. proxy, mail, apache)

Each minute sending this to my ISP DNS Server.. Which deamon is doing this..? 20 Ping´s ..
Maybe possible to reduce amount of pings from 20 to 3?

Hi ronnie_dk -

If you have manually pinged your ISP's DNS server, then the issue is that ping in Linux defaults to continuous pings until you stop it. Not like Windows where ping is configured to stop after four requests.

If you do a "ping -c 3" , you'll stop after 3 tries.

BTW, you typically don't need to use or know your ISP's DNS server IP address if you have SME set up in Server-and-gateway mode. SME has a built-in cacheing DNS server that works fine.

Hi there .
I am actually NOT doing this manually .
I made a tcpdump, and wondered why SME was doing this by itself.
It happens each minute and repeats 20 times each minute.
I think it´s part of the PPPOE status check from the server itself..
Any help is welcome.
