Problem: when I want to logon to internet I use KPPP, but I have to provide
my root password for permission. I am concerned about running root
permissions while connected to the internet. With all the warnings about
operating under root I am assuming that this is a user implemented problem
(self inflicted wound.)

PAM is what is requiring the root password to access kppp. You can change this by
editing the /etc/pam.d/kppp file.
Change this line:
auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_rootok.so
to
auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_permit.so
Hope that helps.
