Last night, I ran "apt-get dist-upgrade" before I went to sleep. When I got up today, I logged in and tried to execute "pon". I received an error, which I think had something to do with .ppprc. This file didn't exist, so I did 'touch .ppprc' to create it. Also, I had to make pppd setuid root again. Now, only root can run pon, even though my users are in the dip group.
When I try to run pon as a user, this is what shows up in the logs: Apr 12 22:11:33 jgaddis pppd[24083]: Can't open options file /etc/ppp/peers/provider: Function not implemented -rw-r----- 1 root dip 579 Feb 27 23:51 provider As you can see, this file is readable by group dip, which my user belongs to. Has anyone else had any similar problems to this? I'm running potato w/ 2.0.36 kernel.
