They were modified from the original standard.filter, yes.

0.16.5-3

Yes, but...

Yes, but...

Yes, but...

...it's probably a DNS lookup problem, not anything to do with diald per-se.

No, this isn't turning off all DNS lookups.

It will work fine.

What .reg file I gave you does is to disable reverse-lookups of all
connections and double DNS lookups, even when the host is in LM_HOSTS file
(this is a eXceed thing).  I was having exactly the same problem as you
before I used this .reg file.  (BTW, I got this file/technique from the
diald archives about 1 year ago.  See
<a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/http://www.vger.rutgers.edu/~linux-diald/msg00288.html">Re: netbios &amp; diald problems (dns/domain name resolution/53)</a>.)
