the ip-up and ip-down scripts in cooking are executed by pppd, at least on my system, with a umask of 077, which leads to a /etc/resolv.conf permissions problem after the end of the first connection.
having /etc/resolv.conf readable only by root does not let you make dns query as unpriviliged user in following connections.
to fix this i wrote

umask 022

in the first line of both the scripts, but this was not required in slitaz 3.0
is the 077 umask a feature or a bug?

i'm still facing this problem, and ms3811 solved it with my solution, would it be possible to fix it?
having a bad memory i was thinking to fight vs a localized glibc-base and instead i was fighting with this bug :-(

ernia

this issue is driving me crazy, the only thing i can think of is related to busybox which makes su like su - , so it makes every su like a login shell, which was not 3.0 default.
but if i give the umask command in the xterm from where i launch wvdial i get 0022 , which should be correct, how does it come that the very same version of ppp in 3.0 does not have the umask issue?

ernia

if someone is interested i've slightly modified the official receipt to have umask 022 in the start of ip-up and ip-down files, until someone find out the reason of this odd behavior

}

the resulting package is here: http://dump.no/files/07a66b2d3e9e/ppp-2.4.5.tazpkg
remove ppp before to install this package or ip-up and ip-down will not be overwritten
