My diald does not have this problem.  It does, however, have a 60 second
timeout followed by "pppd exited on signal 1".  I've successfuly set it up
under slakware many times.  I've tried a mix of diald / pppd /  dialing
script / kernel ppp versions with the same reslut every time.  Ifup ppp0
works just fine, and I've even tried using the same dial script that ifup
uses.

Restarted the project this weekend with Slakware 3.4, works just fine...
next I'll use the kernel from the redhat box, and see if it still does it.

        This is not "strange story", this is normal situation -
        /etc/ppp/pap-secrets - is the "secret" file so only root must read
and
        write this file. Close other permissions and your diald will work:

        chmod 600 /etc/ppp/pap-secrets
