Do you not have pppconfig? You can set up static or dynamic providers
with it easily. Or edit you /etc/ppp/peers/provider file to look
something like:

hide-password 
noauth
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/provider2"
debug
/dev/ttyS1
115200
defaultroute
127.0.0.1: # enter local_ip:remote_ip , this replaces "noipdefault"
	   # leave remote_ip blank if it'll change
user egm2  # replace with your username
remotename provider
