I had a miriad of problems with ppp and one of the reasons was that I 
tried to follow your net servers guide lines. If you would like to send 
me a printout of your ppp.conf ppp.linkup I will see what I can do to help

Two errors I made were having linux emulation on with and using /etc/ppp
(check handbook under Linux Emulation) and configuring the tun device in 
sysconfig (which Doug White straightened me out on) which is cofigured by 
ppp at execution.

I hope this helps, if not send me what you can and I will do what I can to 
help.
