modem lock file's location



Hi,

Trying to use my modem as a non SU user I get the following message:
"Can't create modem lock file"

Now since pppd runs perfectly as SU I suppose that it's a permission
problem. My non SU user has no permission to write to a directory that
my SU user can write to.

Where is that directory ?

Where does Linux write it's lock files ?

(RH 5.2)

Thanks

Erez
