Hi!

I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE and ppp version 1.7 (as supplied with
2.2.7).

I have had to use "chmod o+x ppp" in order to let other users execute
ppp

When I try to run 'ppp' as a normal user, I get the message "you may not
use ppp in this mode with this label".

I have 'allow users' in the default section of my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf and
the permissions on /usr/sbin/ppp are set correctly.

It works fine as root.

This is a minor problem which I would like to clear up if possible.

Many thanks.
