Thanks matt. I'm taking note of your solution as it's far easier than what I ended up doing. Apparently, permissions on the folders and files is not so kosher either, so I cross-checked all relevant files from an older 6.10 installation that worked, and changed the permissions and owners as listed: ---------------------------------- rwsr-xr-- root dip /usr/sbin/ppd rwxr-xr-x root root /usr/bin/pon
drwxr-xr-x root dip /etc/ppp drwxr-x--- root dip /etc/ppp/peers rw-r----- root dip /etc/ppp/peers/provider (same for any custom provider entries you may have made with pppconf) rw-r--r-- root root /etc/ppp/peers/wvdial rw-r--r-- root root /etc/ppp/peers/wvdial-pipe drwxr-s--- root dip /etc/chatscripts rw-r----- root dip /etc/chatscripts/provider ---------------------------------- Either way, I think this bug may be solved. -- Pon/poff don't work as normal user... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278828 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
