I have both a desktop and a laptop running FreeBSD. For some reason I can use ppp as a normal user on the desktop, but not on the laptop. I checked the usual suspects, but on both boxes: I'm member of the group network I'm listed in the "allow users" entry in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf I'm actually member of the group wheel too, if that matters On the laptop, running ppp (with or without further options) results just in a usage message. Needless to say that I installed both boxes from the same CD (4.3 STABLE), and that I can't remember to do anything special about access rights on either of these boxes. Any hints? regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka <hoenicka_markus@compuserve.com> http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/hoenicka_markus/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
