Alot depends on how your ISP is setup!
My ISP (and many others) start the PPP process on their side
by the user entering the first character of the username as
a capitol P, So username would be: Pusername.

My ppp.conf to follow.
Place you username or password where I have XXXXXXXX's.
As well as set your device & speed.

The login line may not fit your ISP exactly either, But it
is a very common one. If I knew exactly what your ISP provided for
a Login: and Password: prompt as well as their method of invoking ppp
on their system I could be a bit more helpfull.

Watch the wrap on the set dial line as well.

default:
 set device /dev/cuaa1
 set speed 38400
 set parity none
 disable lqr
 deny lqr
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER ABORT NO\\sDIAL\\sTONE TIMEOUT
5 \"\" ATZ OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

isp:
 set phone XXXXXXX
 set authname PXXXXXXXX
 set authkey XXXXXXXX
 set login "TIMEOUT 10 ogin:-\\r-ogin: PXXXXXXXX word: XXXXXXXX"
 set timeout 0
 set ifaddr 0 0
 dial

Then all you need to do is:
	% ppp isp
And it will invoke ppp and connect to your isp.

Don't know if it's exactly right, It works fine for me!

-Enjoy
Gary
