I have Redhat Linux, and for the root operator to get a ppp conection i have
to type:

/etc/ppp/ppplogin

I have set the file to "755", thus users should be able to use the file, but
the when i log in as a user and type the above line the it says /usr/pppd is
not allowed to be touched by the user.

How do I get this to work! Thanks for any help.
