Re: Problem with pppd and Kernel
You are correct. I had not recompiled the kernel. At least not yet. I did
try to make the connection as root and had not tried as a user just yet. I
normally try to make the initial connection as root. Make sure it it clean
and then use always as a user.
Now that having tried the option of re-running pppconfig and still no
success as a user any ideas on where I should go now? Would a recompile be
the best option in this case?
Thank you for the assistance.
