Just had a call from a neighbour who bought Mandrake 9.0; the good news is that they got it installed ok, but on trying to connect to the internet, they selected the menu item for PPP (Gnome desktop) and were greeted with the message saying they did not have permission to connect.
This is probably because pppd is not suid, so one potential fix is to guide them through su and setting that one file, but is this the recommended fix? At the very least, this requiring a su intervention seems a bug in Mdk 9.0. -- Gary Lawrence Murphy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - TeleDynamics Communications - blog: http://www.teledyn.com/mt/ - biz: http://teledyn.com/ - "Computers are useless.
