Hi

I have for the first time in a very long time found myself setting up dialup
internet access on a debain sarge box using kppp.  I have it working when
logged on as root.  When trying to log on as a user pppd dies (with very
little in the way of helpful information) right after about the time the
remote end is sending dynamically assigned ip address information after
successful user / pass negotiation.  Its very likely to be a permissions
problem, what am I missing?

Thanks

Well, on my (Ubuntu) system, you need to belong to the "dip" group. pppd runs SGID with group "dip".
