When I was having problems connecting to my ISP I found a good guide which
helped me no end. It can be found at:
http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ppp-linux.html
OR for plain ascii version:
http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ppp-linux.txt

I'm looking to install diald, so let me know how you find it.

I'm also working on a script which establishes your ppp connection (using
a user defined connection script), fetches your mail (using fetchmail),
empties your mail queue (if you're running sendmail) then exits you
connection and runs your mail program if you have new mail (if you want it 
to.). I'm doing it mainly to improve my scripting skills, and forfill a
specific need I have, but if anyone else wouldn't mid testing it, or wants
to use it, let me know and I'll send you a copy when it's finished. I've
got most of the code done, it's just the integration of the config file I
need to do now, and testing. After that it's free for use.(baring any
large coding problems that stop it working!)
