<rant>I had this exact problem when I installed Linux for the first time. For reasons COMPLETELY beyond my comprehension, Mandrake never had the common sense basic applications like pppd checked by default when you custom install the Networking group. The only way I could get it to work as a first-timer was to install the Recommended package, which was missing many other features I needed. It also used to be very, very difficult to find files I needed the way they are organized in the installation process, until I came across the option to show files either in tree form or alphabetically. I never noticed this until 8.0 but it is a wonder-worker for me when it comes to finding essential files that are buried under heaps of useless apps in the tree structure.</rant> That's the long intro to my solution, which is that you seem to be missing the ppp daemon and need to add it so you can use kppp to connect with your modem.

After that follow et's instructions and I think you'll be ok. Good luck.
