There is an option that controls who can access ppp(8):

: allow user[s] logname...
:     By default, only user id 0 is allowed access to ppp. If this com-
:     mand is used, all of the listed users are allowed access to the
:     section in which the ``allow users'' command is found.  The
:     `default' section is always checked first (even though it is only
:     ever automatically loaded at startup).  Each successive ``allow
:     users'' command overrides the previous one, so it's possible to
:     allow users access to everything except a given label by specify-
:     ing default users in the `default' section, and then specifying a
:     new user list for that label.
: 
:     If user `*' is specified, access is allowed to all users.
