Installing storm linux has gone fairly well. But I am having a problem with connecting to the internet. It goes like this: kppp works just fine while logged in as root (as well as, of course, pppd). But I can't figure out how to get myself as a regular user to use kppp. It says "Sorry, can't open modem." Why can't I "get connected" as a regular user AND use netscape? pppconfig went fine -- as root I can use the "pon" command and get online just fine but, of couse, not as a regular user -- and I was told I could go into /etc/pppd/ and edit the "options" file to read "noauth" on line 37 (or so). I've also been actively digesting "Learning Debian/GNU Linux" by Bill McCarty and "Linux For Dummies" and nothing yet has done it. I read through some of the FAQs on the KDE website and it still hasn't resulted in my being able to connect via kppp as a regular user. Where am I going wrong? I am a newbie and would seriously love someone to help me out with this sour pickle. Otherwise I have thoroughly enjoyed learning this incredible os. Thanks in advance for any help!
