Yes, you can write/edit the config files yourself. You will need to
change at least /etc/ppp/peers/provider and /etc/ppp/pap-secrets (or
chap-secrets)

See 'man pppd' and the docs in /usr/share/doc/ppp/ for more info.

Thanks for the reply,

I just start realizing that something is wrong with this installation because many files are missing. There is no /etc/ppp/provider file there is no man pppd, the  /usr/share/doc/ppp entry is also missing. I guess I have to wait and reinstall it when the final will come out. 
I have never experienced something like this before.
