Thanks Mark, that removed the issue with the service part.  I'm still
getting the other error:

May 29 20:52:52 kaynjay diald[2220]: Unknown option 'reroute'
May 29 20:52:53 kaynjay diald[2221]: Creating FIFO
May 29 20:52:54 kaynjay diald[2221]: start sl0: SIOCSIFMETRIC: Operation not
supported

I don't know about the reroute issue, but the SIOCSIFMETRIC error is (to me)
an obvious problem (seems fatal in its reporting).  Is it something I need
to address??

Lastly, is it possible to use "pon" to create the connection from diald? 
Seems that that would be the most reasonable way to insure success for us
neophytes...
