Sounds like you don't have nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf. Did you run
pppconfig? It should have asked you for nameservers and also put 'noauth'
in the provider file to override the 'auth' in /etc/ppp/options.

Run pppconfig and then use pon to start ppp and poff to stop it. If you
have trouble use plog to get the debugging output and post it here with a
complete explanation of what you tried, what happened, and copies of
/etc/chatscripts/provider, /etc/ppp/peers/provider, and
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets. Munge your password.
