I'm setting up a RedHat 6.0 box for a friend of mine who's
notcomputer-savvy. I'm setting up a KDE environment for him (not as easy
or as stable as i thought). I've tried to set up kppp, but i get the
following error dialog when i try:
pppd is not properly installed!
The pppd binary must be installed with the
SUID bit set.
The file permissions for /usr/sbin/pppd seem correct. kppp also works
correctly for the superuser. How do i fix this?
Thanks,
