Package: kppp Version: 4:3.1.5-1 Severity: normal Followup-For: Bug #126406
as the original bug reporter says, /usr/share/doc/kppp/README.Debian gives the very questionable advice to set "noauth" in /etc/ppp/options I found a different solution to make kppp work: add the following to /usr/share/doc/kppp/README.Debian privgroup dip And put the people in dip that should be able to use kppp. w.r.t. to security this is better, but not optimal, of course -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.4-1-k7 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Versions of packages kppp depends on: ii kdelibs4 4:3.1.5-1 KDE core libraries ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.16-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libaudio2 1.6c-1 The Network Audio System (NAS).
