This message is probably best address to Brian Somers, but perhaps I'm
just doing something wrong, and the people at questions will be able to
point that out.  I just setup dialin ppp using user-ppp from 8/29/1998.
In order to get it to work with user ``ppp'' I had to add the following
line to the default: header:

allow user ppp

If I added it to the sub-header ppp:, I would get an error saying I could
not run ppp as this user in direct mode.  I was under the impression that
each allow user[s] command precluded the first.  Why, then, did this not
work?  Also, if I had the global allow user, and a sub-header allow user,
it still would not work.  Is there something I am missing?  I think I
followed the directions pretty well.  Thanks.

Joe Clarke
