In your diald.options check for something like this:

  pppd-options debug noauth noipdefault user xxxxx remotename
yyyyy

>From pppd man page:

 noipdefault
              Disables  the  default  behaviour  when no local IP
              address is specified, which  is  to  determine  (if
              possible)  the  local IP address from the hostname.
              With this option, the peer will have to supply  the
              local IP address during IPCP negotiation (unless it
              specified explicitly on the command line or  in  an
              options file).


Check also your /etc/ppp/options, this file should not contain
some option which conflict with diald, as man diald says:

              WARNING:  Note  that  some pppd commands
              should  not  be  specified,   not   even   in   the
              /etc/ppp/options  file, because they will interfere
              with the proper operation of diald.  In  particular
              you  should  not  specify  the tty device, the baud
              rate, nor any  of  the  options  crtscts,  xonxoff,
              -crtscts,  defaultroute,  lock,  netmask,  -detach,
              modem, local, mtu and proxyarp.  Use the equivalent
              diald commands to control these pppd settings.
