Edit the file /etc/group and add/remove appropriate users from the appropriate groups. In debian it's the "dip" group.

also - in the dialup software your using - try looking for any login administration options. if it's gui go thru the tabs - if it's text based try looking at the man pages for the software and all it's paramenters.
