Actually, I want to create a user that will reset the networking stuff when logged on, but it's the same basic concept.

I did this, changing it to "/sbin/service network restart" instead of PPPoE, and using a different username. As suggested in
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=15439.msg59330#msg59330 I also ran "usermod -G root
". When I login with this account, it brings up the script exactly as it should, but during execution it complains that "users cannot control this device". Did I do something wrong, or is there another step I need to do?
