I haven't messed with kppp lately but never had a problem
in the past (I now have a DSL line and don't mess with my
modem much except in "emergencies" when something isn't
right with my DSL). Have you run netcfg (as superuser) and
selected the button that allows any user to activate/deactivate
the connection? Kppp doesn't get you around the need to
setup the modem to begin with.
Do you find that users also do not have the ability to use
usernet? If users cannot, then it confirms that you didn't
setup the modem in netcfg to allow any user to activate/
deactivate connections. I went thru something like you
see with usernet about a week ago (reinstalled everything
and hadn't yet downloaded and compiled kde). I had forgotten
to set everything up properly in netcfg. After I activated
the button I mention above, usernet was then usable for
me as a user.

Damn.
I'm trying to set up a personal system to use kde and kppp. kppp is
easily set up for root but for ordinary users?
