I used to run kppp as a user to access my dial-up modem without any problems. 
After installing a LAN card I found that I when I ran kppp as user the 
connection would be made but the browser and email would not work. Mandrake 
control centre insisted that I was not connected to the internet. I worked 
around the problem by creating a new profile and using Mandrake control 
centre to access the internet. The only problem now is that kppp runs as 
root.
1. Is this a security problem
2. How can I go back to using kppp as user?
