Should similar changes be made to /etc/pam.d/ppp where similar entries I find.
I made suggested changes to /etc/pam.d/kppp,but still not getting the result.Also I
draw your attention to mail by Scott Burns who recommends a different change.I dont
see file suggested by him on my system.

In /etc/pam.d/ edit "kppp" and delete:

Hi List,
I recently installed Fedora Core1.I am a migrant from MS Windows
fascinated by the ideology of free software
My box is for home use with other family members sharing it.Each has a
user account.Each needs to connect to Internet.But Kppp doesn't allow any
non-root users to launch it without providing root password.
I tried creating a dialout group and putting all users in that group along
with the root as suggested by the Kppp manual.Now
/usr/bin/consolehelper,/usr/bin/kppp>consolehelper link,usr/sbin/kppp all
are groupowned by dialout group.This didn't work.I tried putting pppd also
on this owner-group.Still it doesn't work,not only that I cannot run kppp
now - unlike earlier - without expressly specifying 'run as root'.
Can anybody suggest me ways to share kppp without requiring to provide
root password.
Thanx all,
Parameshwara Bhat
