after finishing a new install only root can access the internet. Users can access the local network, but not the internet. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Bigbob |

What's the method of accessing the Internet? Ethernet router, ADSL modem, standard phone-line modem? More details are needed. |

Sorry, I connect thru an ethernet router connected to a cable modem. I've never had this problem before, so I'm not really sure what's happening here.
