    Hi all

    I now have a working VPN using SSH and PPP :-)

    My only concern is having created a user specifically for the VPN (called vpn) I have had to change the vpn user's primary group ID to 0 (root) or it would still ask for a password when connecting via SSH. Should I be concerned with the security of this?
