Neil,

kppp is asking for the root password. You can either supply the root
password to make your connection or do the following :-


1. Delete /usr/bin/kppp
2. give the real binary suid root permissions :- chmod u+s
/usr/sbin/kppp
3. Create a symbolic link  :- ln -s /usr/sbin/kppp /usr/bin/kppp

HTH,
Clare
