From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.2; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko) Description of problem: /etc/ppp/connect-errors should not exist. pppd should not need write access to /etc for any reason. The SE Linux policy for pppd prevents it from writing to anything under /etc, I think that this matches the correct design for the system and that pppd should be changed to match. Is such a log file necessary anyway? Couldn't it just all go to syslog? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

ppp-2.4.2-5 which has these changes: /etc/ppp/resolv.conf -> /var/run/ppp/resolv.conf /etc/ppp/connect-errors -> /var/log/ppp/connect-errors to avoid writing into /etc and an appropriate logrotate script should hit Rawhide shortly.
Where can I get ppp-2.4.2-5? It is not in http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/Fedora/RPMS/
Shortly, patience is the key here ;-). I'm sure it will get there with the next push. CLOSED->RAWHIDEmeans that we have a package ready _internally_, there is always a delay between when we are done and when a package hits the FTP server.
Thank you. I look forward to trying the new version.
ppp-2.4.2-5.2.FC2 has lines in the %install section of the spec file to create the symlinks mentioned in comment #9, but they don't actually end up in the binary RPM. (This also appears to be the case in ppp-2.4.2-7 in rawhide...) Am I missing something?
