All: I'm not sure if this issue has been addressed yet, but following the 2.2.5 to 2.2.6/7 upgrade, my dialup PPP stopped working. This seems to be related to the new group 'network' assigned to ppp. Since I'm using 'getty' for dialup ppp, my configuration invokes `ppp -direct'. This does not run as Joe-Low-Privlege-User, so I changed the permissions for "/usr/sbin/ppp". before: -r-sr-x--- 1 root network 143360 Feb 25 1998 /usr/sbin/ppp --- after: -r-sr-xr-x 1 root network 143360 Feb 25 1998 /usr/sbin/ppp This may introduce some security problems. Any suggestions? ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Marc Giannoni <marc@versa.eng.comsat.com> Date: 11-Sep-98 Time: 12:26:33 This message was sent by XF-Mail ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
