My permissions are:

drwxr-x---   2 root     dip          1024 Apr 13 14:38 /etc/chatscripts/
-rw-r-----   1 root     dip           204 Apr  2 06:43 /etc/chatscripts/provider
drwxr-x---   5 root     dip          1024 Apr 13 14:38 /etc/ppp
drwxr-x---   2 root     dip          1024 Apr 13 14:38 /etc/ppp/peers
-rw-r-----   1 root     dip           223 Apr  9 15:48 /etc/ppp/peers/provider

I'm not sure why the search permission is needed on /etc/ppp.
