The users who should be able to use pppd have to be in group dip.
-> adduser theuser dip
( make sure to login again after this)
The groups command will show the groups a user is in.
pppd should have these permissions:
$ ls -l /usr/sbin/pppd
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 105532 Jun 19 02:59 /usr/sbin/pppd*
-> chmod 4754 /usr/sbin/pppd
-> chown root.dip /usr/sbin/pppd
pppd is setuid root, so permissions on /etc/chatscripts shouldn't
matter.
Ciao,
Martin
