I am having the same problem now that I've moved to RH 4.0.  Everything
worked fine under 3.0.3, but now the first line on each page is halfway
cut off.  Is there something simple I'm missing?

Also, I'm don't seem to be able to run pppd as anything but root.  I know
enough to run pppd suid root (that is, chmod 4755 pppd), but this doesn't
seem to do it. I'm a little stumped, because I could run pppd as a
non-root user under 3.0.3.  I know (at least I thought I did) what I'm
doing here, I've read the FAQ's and HOWTO's.  Is anyone else having this
problem?
