Why does pppd not use dialout group and does use dip? I just googled for what the dip is.
"dip means Dialup IP . It was written by Fred van Kempen and has been patched very heavily by a number of people. Today there is one strain that is used by almost everyone: Version dip337p-uri , which is included with most modern Linux distributions, or is available from the metalab.unc.edu FTP archive." Why do such a general software piece like pppd use the group which is named after some old crappy software? There's a special group named "dialout" which has to be used. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/814270 Title: first user created on the system needs to be in dip group To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/base-installer/+bug/814270/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
