I have used these options with success in the past:
/AutoPPP/ -    a_ppp   /usr/sbin/pppd auth login debug crtscts modem
ms-dns 10.10.10.1 lock proxyarp 10.10.10.1:10.10.10.5

change 10.10.10.1 to the ip of the linux box and 10.10.10.5 to the ip
you want to assign the modem, and 10.10.10.1 to your DNS.  Also be sure
to turn on ip forwarding if you want to access things beyond the linux
box.

it maybe the way you specified the ip option in the options.ttyS1 file,
try it directly on the pppd command line using mgetty's configuration
see if that helps.
