Basically, gnome-ppp is an abandoned project that was never finished. It
doesn't work for a lot of people, especially people with newer distros.
I've never gotten it to work, despite the suggestions of some people on
this list about making certain files suid. Check out the GNOME mailing
list archives on geocrawler.com, and search for gnome-ppp for the
suggestions I'm referring to. If you have a newish Redhat or Mandrake
distro, you could try rp3, which is a GNOME-based ppp dialer that _is_
actually being maintained. It doesn't work for me either, but you might
give it a try.
