RTFM, which in this case is PPP-HOWTO.  It is usually in 
/usr/doc/howto or in comp.os.linux.answers or on any linux 
mirror (something/doc/howto.)

You'll be well advised to read Serial-HOWTO, NET-2-HOWTO and
Network Administrator's Guide (in /doc/LDP on linux mirrors) 
sometime, too.

Read the docs for DIALD carefully.  There is a number of options
to pppd that have to be disabled in /etc/ppp/options for ppp to
work with diald (I can't be more specific - I don't use diald.)

Hope that helps
