Jason,
Below are my diald 0.16-5 scripts and settings - they may help you with
your problem(s).
Contents of "/etc/diald/connect" script.
#!/bin/sh
# Copyright (c) 1996, Eric Schenk.
#
# This script is intended to give an example of a connection script that
# uses the "message" facility of diald to communicate progress through
# the dialing process to a diald monitoring program such as dctrl or
diald-top.
# It also reports progress to the system logs. This can be useful if you
# are seeing failed attempts to connect and you want to know when and
why
# they are failing.
#
# This script requires the use of chat-1.9 or greater for full
# functionality. It should work with older versions of chat,
# but it will not be able to report the reason for a connection failure.
# Configuration parameters
# The initialization string for your modem
#MODEM_INIT="AT&FV1&C1E0Q0S71=0S80=1&D2"

# The chat sequence to recongnize that the remote system

PASSWD_CHAT_SEQ="word:"

# Require the peer to authenticate itself before allowing network

# Use hardware flow control (i.e. RTS/CTS) to control the flow of data

#crtscts
# Use software flow control (i.e. XON/XOFF) to control the flow of data
# on the serial port.
#xonxoff
# Specifies that certain characters should be escaped on transmission
# (regardless of whether the peer requests them to be escaped with its
# async control character map). The characters to be escaped are
# specified as a list of hex numbers separated by commas. Note that
# almost any character can be specified for the escape option, unlike
# the asyncmap option which only allows control characters to be
# specified. The characters which may not be escaped are those with hex
# values 0x20 - 0x3f or 0x5e.
#escape 11,13,ff
# Don't use the modem control lines.
local
# Specifies that pppd should use a UUCP-style lock on the serial device
# to ensure exclusive access to the device.
lock
# Use the modem control lines. On Ultrix, this option implies hardware
# flow control, as for the crtscts option. (This option is not fully
# implemented.)

# Set the MRU [Maximum Receive Unit] value to <n> for negotiation. pppd
# will ask the peer to send packets of no more than <n> bytes. The

# Disables the default behaviour when no local IP address is specified,
# which is to determine (if possible) the local IP address from the

# address during IPCP negotiation (unless it specified explicitly on the
# command line or in an options file).
#noipdefault
# Enables the "passive" option in the LCP. With this option, pppd will
# attempt to initiate a connection; if no reply is received from the
# peer, pppd will then just wait passively for a valid LCP packet from
# the peer (instead of exiting, as it does without this option).
#passive
# With this option, pppd will not transmit LCP packets to initiate a
# connection until a valid LCP packet is received from the peer (as for
# the "passive" option with old versions of pppd).
#silent
# Don't request or allow negotiation of any options for LCP and IPCP
# (use default values).
#-all
# Disable Address/Control compression negotiation (use default, i.e.
# address/control field disabled).
#-ac
# Disable asyncmap negotiation (use the default asyncmap, i.e. escape
# all control characters).
#-am
# Don't fork to become a background process (otherwise pppd will do so
# if a serial device is specified).
#-detach
# Disable IP address negotiation (with this option, the remote IP
# address must be specified with an option on the command line or in an
# options file).
#-ip
# Disable magic number negotiation. With this option, pppd cannot
# detect a looped-back line.
#-mn
# Disable MRU [Maximum Receive Unit] negotiation (use default, i.e.
# 1500).
#-mru
# Disable protocol field compression negotiation (use default, i.e.
# protocol field compression disabled).
#-pc
# Require the peer to authenticate itself using PAP.
#+pap
# Don't agree to authenticate using PAP.
#-pap
# Require the peer to authenticate itself using CHAP [Cryptographic
# Handshake Authentication Protocol] authentication.
#+chap
# Don't agree to authenticate using CHAP.
#-chap
# Disable negotiation of Van Jacobson style IP header compression (use
# default, i.e. no compression).
#-vj
# Increase debugging level (same as -d). If this option is given, pppd
# will log the contents of all control packets sent or received in a
# readable form. The packets are logged through syslog with facility
# daemon and level debug. This information can be directed to a file by
# setting up /etc/syslog.conf appropriately (see syslog.conf(5)). (If
# pppd is compiled with extra debugging enabled, it will log messages
# using facility local2 instead of daemon).
#debug
# Append the domain name <d> to the local host name for authentication
# purposes. For example, if gethostname() returns the name porsche,
# but the fully qualified domain name is porsche.Quotron.COM, you would
# use the domain option to set the domain name to Quotron.COM.
#domain <d>
# Enable debugging code in the kernel-level PPP driver. The argument n
# is a number which is the sum of the following values: 1 to enable
# general debug messages, 2 to request that the contents of received
# packets be printed, and 4 to request that the contents of transmitted
# packets be printed.
#kdebug n
# Set the MTU [Maximum Transmit Unit] value to <n>. Unless the peer
# requests a smaller value via MRU negotiation, pppd will request that
# the kernel networking code send data packets of no more than n bytes
# through the PPP network interface.
#mtu <n>
# Enforce the use of the hostname as the name of the local system for
# authentication purposes (overrides the name option).
#usehostname
# Set the assumed name of the remote system for authentication purposes
# to <n>.
#remotename <n>
# Add an entry to this system's ARP [Address Resolution Protocol]
# table with the IP address of the peer and the Ethernet address of this
# system.
#proxyarp
# Use the system password database for authenticating the peer using
# PAP. Note: mgetty already provides this option. If this is specified
# then dialin from users using a script under Linux to fire up ppp wont
work.
# login
# If this option is given, pppd will send an LCP echo-request frame to
# the peer every n seconds. Under Linux, the echo-request is sent when
# no packets have been received from the peer for n seconds. Normally
# the peer should respond to the echo-request by sending an echo-reply.
# This option can be used with the lcp-echo-failure option to detect
# that the peer is no longer connected.
lcp-echo-interval 30
# If this option is given, pppd will presume the peer to be dead if n
# LCP echo-requests are sent without receiving a valid LCP echo-reply.
# If this happens, pppd will terminate the connection. Use of this
# option requires a non-zero value for the lcp-echo-interval parameter.
# This option can be used to enable pppd to terminate after the physical
# connection has been broken (e.g., the modem has hung up) in
# situations where no hardware modem control lines are available.
lcp-echo-failure 4
# Set the LCP restart interval (retransmission timeout) to <n> seconds
# (default 3).
#lcp-restart <n>
# Set the maximum number of LCP terminate-request transmissions to <n>
# (default 3).
#lcp-max-terminate <n>
# Set the maximum number of LCP configure-request transmissions to <n>
# (default 10).
#lcp-max-configure <n>
# Set the maximum number of LCP configure-NAKs returned before starting
# to send configure-Rejects instead to <n> (default 10).
#lcp-max-failure <n>
# Set the IPCP restart interval (retransmission timeout) to <n>

# Set the maximum number of IPCP terminate-request transmissions to <n>

#ipcp-max-failure <n>
# Set the PAP restart interval (retransmission timeout) to <n> seconds
# (default 3).
#pap-restart <n>
# Set the maximum number of PAP authenticate-request transmissions to

#chap-restart <n>
# Set the maximum number of CHAP challenge transmissions to <n>

#chap-max-challenge
# If this option is given, pppd will rechallenge the peer every <n>

# With this option, pppd will accept the peer's idea of our local IP
