Dillon" Subject: Is use of PPP shell script neccessary? To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I was digging in the handbook and found the recommendation for using a shell script for users to run PPP. I circumvented this via adding myself(single user machine dynamic IP) to the dialer group, and I can call ppp freely. Is this "sloppy" or dangerous in any way I should know about?
