(Copy to J Y in case he's still not getting the list posts) I'm no expert at all, but for what it's worth, my file /etc/ppp/peers/orcon is as follows: -rw-r----- 1 root dip 580 Oct 1 10:28 orcon (I didn't set any of that specially, it was just what the sample file 'provider' had) and I'd already added myself (as user cr) to group dip. cr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
