Some info below.  Some logs would be helpfull with debug 7.

Generic info for RH 5.2.  Assumption: you installed PPP.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
RH puts ppp scripts in /usr/doc/ppp-2.3.5
Copy ppp-on, ppp-on-dialer, options to /etc/ppp.
BTW:I have copied /dev/null to options.
These need to be made execuitable.  Execute chmod 755 on ppp-on
and ppp-on-dialer
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Modify ppp-on by editing the following:
TELEPHONE, ACCOUNT, PASSWORD
------------------------------------------------------------------
For exec command. put in correct device probably
cua1 (for RH5.2) and modem speed
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in ISP nameserver given you by your
ISP.
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
You usually get two from your isp.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
execute ppp-on & and monitor logs with
tail -f /var/log/messages.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
OR:
Control Pannel: Modem configuration.  Select 
correct device.  (used in ppp-on script)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Control Pannel: Network Configurator: Routing: Defaults blank
PPP0 will use this so needs a blank here.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Network Configurator: Names: insert ISP
nameserver addresses.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
System Configurator: PPP/SLIP/PLIP:  Configurations, Add
Fill in Hardware, Communication.  Assumes PAP not 
required - If things do not work check with ISP.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Save quit.  Verify /etc/resolv.conf has your ISP
addresses.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The linuxconf sets up most things but does not
setup the ppp-on script - that must be done by hand.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Testing:
cd /etc/ppp
execute ppp-on 
Ping locally between your network machines to insure your ok.  
Ping some net address by ip number like 10.220.10.120. Once ppp
is connected. 
Verify your name server working, ping boston.com or do an
nslookup microsoft.com
When not dialed in ping someother box locally by name
to insure yor local resolution is working say if
done by the /etc/hosts and /etc/lmhosts.
-------------------------------------------------------------
If things do not work turn on debugging or up the level of 
debugging.  Edit the scripts and put debug 7 in there.
For LCP errors two common causes are the ISP is not responding
to you - he's down or you and the ISP are out of sync on PAP.

Enable pppd debugging with the debug option
pppd debug ...
or put debug inot /etc/ppp/options. That will give you a clue. It is
possible your ISP decided to change authentication on you (eg chap or
pap)

I had the same problem with a GVC modem a few days ago, and i dont think
we are the only ones :) Of some obscure reason the standard timeout time
is set to one minute inside Denmark :) (and only in dk!? i know our
phone rates are so high that one should move out of the country, but 1
minute!?!? :) (We found out by reading the manual :) Insert a \T0 in
your dialup string. (if it is ATDT now then make it AT\T0DT. If you do
want it to hang up automatically after a certain ammount of time then
replace the 0 with the number of minutes you want. (It is not idle time,
but the ammount of time you have been connected it counts)

                                            ^ What is this extra r
in the command you are sending the modem?
