Install pppd and pppconfig Debian packages. Make sure to put that authorized non-root user in the "dip" group in /etc/group like this: dip:x:30:username1:username2 the username is their login name. You can dial in to your ISP with "pon" and off with "poff" Make sure you add your nameserver IP addresses to /etc/resolv.conf like so: search yourdomain.com nameserver ns.ip.add.ress -- Andrew
