Greetings.

chmod a+rx /usr/sbin/ppp-go

This should assign read and execute privileges for everyone.  Usually works for me :)

As usual check the man page for chmod to see what else you can do.

Subject:        making a file executable

My ISP sent me their help file, see below, and it says to make the file executable.  
Would someone explain to me how?

Thanks, 
 Ken

---from my isp---

Now you have to create a chat script file called ppp-go to be placed in your /usr/sbin 
directory it should look like the following with your dialin phone number instead of 
the number thats there if its not the same and make it executable:

#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v "" ATDT2920331 CONNECT' &
