Re: Configuring KDE- Dial Up PPP

2000-09-20 Thread Thomas Halahan

I asked had this problem a week ago.  Many people kindly replied, and
I sorted it out.  It is the 'auth' option in /etc/ppp/options.  

I have forwarded the emails to your email address so as not to
clutter here.

Do an "ls -l" on your pppd and see what "group" it belongs too.
Add yourself to that group.  Then logout/login to reset your
group list.  Also look in /etc/ppp for an options file.  If there
is no options file then "touch options" to create an empty one.
