Description of problem: /etc/wvdial.conf is configured by the redhat network
configuration tool when a ppp connection is defined. wvdial.conf contains remote
user id and password for the dial-up account. wvdial.conf is also visible with
these permissions:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          248 Apr 14 16:59 /etc/wvdial.conf

Since it also contains the phone number for the remote system this seems like a
large potential security risk.
