Dear Rafael, For normal users to be able to start "pon dsl-provider", /usr/sbin/pppoe has to be suid root. You can set that like this:
chmod +s /usr/sbin/pppoe After you've done that, permission levels should look like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ls -l /usr/sbin/pppoe -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 31020 Sep 17 03:13 /usr/sbin/pppoe Note that this would also be true of /usr/sbin/pppd if you were using a dial-up modem (rather than adsl). regards, Robert On Thu, 25 Dec 2003 23:56:10 -0200 Rafael Alexandre Schmitt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi , > > Is it possible start 'pon dsl-provider' as a normal user(not root)? > I'm already on dialout and dip groups . > > Thanks for any tip. > -- > Rafael Alexandre Schmitt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
