Re: gnome-ppp not working

[Brandon Kolbe <chezteth execpc com>]

Hi Braden,
	In order to get pppd to startup with gnome-ppp pppd has to be
setuid.  To do this you must either login as root or su to root, go to the
directory with pppd in it and type "chmod u+s pppd" (without the quotes of
course).  Then try using gnome-ppp again.  It should work then.
