I am running FreeBSD 3.1 on a Pentium 486 machine, and have the user ppp that came with the release (PPP Version 2.0 - $Date: 1998/12/14 01:15:34) It no longer says "User Process PPP. Writen by Toshiaru OHNO." I have been using user ppp for some time now, but have only recently tried to break the habit of doing everthing as root, but still have to su to use ppp. I have added an allow users line in my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf default: allow user suleyman set speed 115200 set device /dev/cuaa0 I have changed the permissions for /usr/sbin/ppp, /dev/tun0, and /dev/cuaa0 still I get the following $ ppp Working in interactive mode Warning: No available tunnel devices found (Permission denied). Warning: bundle_Create: No such file or directory Any suggestions would be most welcome.
