The users who should be able to use pppd have to be in group dip.
 -> adduser theuser dip
( make sure to login again after this)
The groups command will show the groups a user is in.

pppd should have these permissions:

$ ls -l /usr/sbin/pppd
-rwsr-xr--   1 root     dip        105532 Jun 19 02:59 /usr/sbin/pppd*

 -> chmod 4754 /usr/sbin/pppd
 -> chown root.dip /usr/sbin/pppd

pppd is setuid root, so permissions on /etc/chatscripts shouldn't
matter.

Ciao,
