Did you use pppconfig?

As distributed the ppp package includes a dummy /etc/ppp/peers/provider
whoch contains '/dev/modem'. This dummy file cannot work and is replaced
by a workable one by pppconfig.
If you have not run pppconfig do so. If you have post copies of your
/etc/ppp/peers/provider and /etc/chatscripts/provider.
