> Unless asterisk is running as root (and invoking pppd as such) pppd will fail with:
> I work around this by commenting out lines 122 + 123 in apps/app_dahdiras.c from asterisk-1.6.2.11, specifically, these two lines:
>     argv[argc++] = "plugin";
>     argv[argc++] = "dahdi.so";
> And then passing DAHDIRAS(call,ras) where /etc/ppp/peers/ras contains:
> plugin dahdi.so
> along with my other pppd options.
