More than likely it is one or both of two possibilities:
1. Your /etc/ppp/option file has a line starting with "Lock" in it.
Empty that file.
2. Your /usr/sbin/pppd file is lacking su permission. As root issue
"chmod a+s /usr/sbin/pppd". Unless you change /etc/permissions to tell
YaST what you want on pppd it will strip suid off of pppd every time it
is run.
