Only root access the internet
Hi all, I'm trying for the last 6 months to connect to the Internet as an ordinary user but only root can! I gave full permissions to pppd, all /etc/ppp files, kppp, wvdial. I can connect but when I open Mozilla I can't connect anywhere. Only root can! I tried to use pon with no result. I'm using Debain Woody v3 r2 k2.4.18 Any advice would be appreciated! _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

I don't suppose the perms on /etc/resolv.conf are muffed?
