Are you running pon as root?  If not, did you add yourself as a ppp user
when you ran pppconfig? If not, run pppconfig, go to 'Advanced', go to
'Add-User', and do so.  If that isn't the problem post the output of plog
and copies of /etc/chatscripts/<nameofProvider> and
/etc/ppp/peers/<nameofProvider>.  Munge any passwords.
