I suspect that you didn't choose the right install options. You may
be able to correct the problem by re-running the installer,
called "base-install." Try "man base-install" to see if there's a
man page.
There may be a more fundamental problem, however. Earlier you posted
that your installation media lacks pppconfig, which is part of the main
distribution. Do you have a full set of the installation media? You
should not have to run around the net looking for missing pieces.

I didn't see CD-2, so I suspect CD-1 was the only available iso for xfce.

Apparently somebody decided that ppp and pppconfig are not essential. I think
your case suggests that it is, so you might want to take up the issue on a
developer list such as debian-cd or debian-testing, or just file a bug report.
In the meantime you can find the dependancies of ppp using the command
"apt-cache depends ppp" and install each of those dependancies before you
installing ppp and pppconfig.
Here is the output I get on Sarge:
$ apt-cache depends ppp
ppp
