Is it FreeBSD, NetBSD or OpenBSD?  Can you send us the output of
$ uname -a

So your *BSD system found it. The next question is did you configure
your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf ?

Here is my sample ppp.conf file. Note the allow users at the top. You
must add your user acct to that line. Also:

Make sure that your system has a group named ``network'' in the
/etc/group file and that the group contains the names of all users
expected to use ppp.  

See the man page for ppp.

 set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
 set device /dev/cua03

 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\

# Client side PPP
#
#  Although the PPP protocol is a peer to peer protocol, we normally
#  consider the side that makes the connection as the client and the
#  side that receives the connection as the server.  Authentication
#  is required by the server either using a unix-style login procedure
#  or by demanding PAP or CHAP authentication from the client.
#


# When we want to use PAP or CHAP instead of using a unix-style login
# procedure, we do the following.  Note, the peer suggests whether we
# should send PAP or CHAP.  By default, we send whatever we're asked for.
#
PAPorCHAP:
 set phone 3146524900  #the nymber of your ISP. don't use the area
code if it is local
 set login
 set authname [EMAIL PROTECTED] #login supplied by ISP
 set authkey $THE_PASSWORD_SUPPLIED BY_YOUR ISP
 set timeout 480
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
 add default HISADDR
 enable dns


you will have to experiment with the  /dev/cua03. Yours could be
anything from cua00 to cua04.

 To run ppp as a normal user do in an xterm:

$ ppp papchap
Working in interactive mode
Using interface: tun0
ppp ON $HOSTNAME>


then type "dial" and hit enter. You should be able to connect.

ppp ON $HOSTNAME> dial

Kind regards,
