Okay, another question. I received another reply to the original message saying that I should edit /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.ppp and modify the perms there.
Is one method better than the other? (I'd imagine that editing the /etc/permissions.local would be better the /sbin/conf.d one would get overwritten if/when I install a newer suseppp package?)
Well, there is usually more than one way to do what you want with Linux, but /etc/permissions.* is apparently the mechanism intended to work with SuSEConfig. If you read the comments in /etc/rc.config right above the CHECK_PERMISSIONS and PERMISSION_SECURITY sections, it explains a little about it. -- Bud Rogers <budr@sirinet.net> <A HREF="http://www.sirinet.net/~budr/zamm.html"><A HREF="http://www.sirinet.net/~budr/zamm.html</A">http://www.sirinet.net/~budr/zamm.html</A</A>> formerly <budr@tanet.net> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
