Are there any more ideas on what could be or what should be done ?
Coming from MSWindows environement,I would think security being so tight
as not allow non-root users of desktop an internet connection very crazy.
I chose Power Desktop Installation and a decent user-oriented installation
should have set this automatically . Is Linux not to be used on desktops
and layman users?
The security is not really so crazy/tight if you think about it.
Linux can have a long list of network services that would be at risk
if any non-root user could break or misuse network
links.
And yes I do agree with you. The setup tool should prompt for a setup
result where non-root activation was permitted and perhaps multiple
dial up accounts as well.
I thought I saw a message pass that all was working for you so
I will let this go here.
