Hi, I got in contact with one of the two developers maintaining kppp (Harri Porten) and he gave me the following response: "Delete the symbolic link /usr/bin/kppp, give the real binary suid root permissions (chmod u+s /usr/sbin/kppp and call this one directly. If /usr/sbin is not in your path you could create a symbolic link (ln -s /usr/sbin/kppp /usr/bin/kppp)." Works fine for me.
