If you start it as non-root, it should bring up a dialog box asking you
for the root password, and then start normally...
Please let me know if this isn't working for you.

If you want to permit users to use kppp without knowing the root password,
do the following as root:
        rm /usr/bin/kppp
        mv /usr/sbin/kppp /usr/bin
        chmod 4755 /usr/bin/kppp

Sure - you can run "ifup ppp0" (as root) or use rp3 (which does pretty
much the same thing as kppp, just with a different look; you also need
to know the root password in order to use rp3).
