To: FreeBSD User Questions List Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This message is probably best address to Brian Somers, but perhaps I'm just doing something wrong, and the people at questions will be able to point that out. I just setup dialin ppp using user-ppp from 8/29/1998. In order to get it to work with user ``ppp'' I had to add the following line to the default: header: allow user ppp If I added it to the sub-header ppp:, I would get an error saying I could not run ppp as this user in direct mode. I was under the impression that each allow user[s] command precluded the first. Why, then, did this not work? Also, if I had the global allow user, and a sub-header allow user, it still would not work. Is there something I am missing? I think I followed the directions pretty well. Thanks.
