This is how I do it. In /etc/rc.d/rc.local, I have this:
/usr/sbin/pppd call connect.com.au
This tells pppd to setup a connection using the options in
/etc/ppp/peers/connect.com.au. This file contains:
defaultroute lock mru 1500 mtu 1500 modem crtscts asyncmap 0
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/connect.com.au.chat'
noipdefault /dev/modem 115200 user "username"
lcp-echo-interval 300 lcp-echo-failure 10
holdoff 60 persist
And the chat script looks like this:
ABORT BUSY ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT "NO DIAL TONE" ABORT ERROR "" ATZ OK
AT&D2S95=47DTxxxxxxxx CONNECT ""
You also need your username and password in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets.
All this is explained in the pppd man page which you should read.
Cheers,
John
