Unwanted Dialup Connections!

Geoffrey,

Thanks for your reply.

Does this mean I need to add all the local workstations and router to
the /etc/hosts file to avoid the dialups? Or can I just disable the
reverse DNS? Is this a good idea? If so, how do I achieve this?

I don't know if this will help at all to narrow down the problem, but
when I ran the following command this morning:

/sbin/route

It caused the router to dial out immediately prior to displaying the 3rd
line of the file which is the default gateway entry. As soon as the
dialup connection is established the gateway line of the route file is
displayed!
