I'm not sure I understand this. All ISPs use ppp anyway so I don't
quite get what you mean by "ended up using pppd".  What I can't get
working is diald itself: it's asking for features that were only
introduced a few weeks ago in 2.4x How the f*ck it ever worked is
beyond me. The doc is quite unbelievably bad, and as usual with these
things concentrates on borderline cases and special parameters and
never once addresses the normal standards that most users have:
simple phone line dialup with PAP to a ISP's ppp server.
