You might try, first, getting pppd to work with your Xisp dialer. I use chat.
Here's a script I can use to run pppd:
#!/bin/sh
#
DIALER_SCRIPT=/etc/ppp/ppp-on-dialer
#
export TELEPHONE ACCOUNT PASSWORD
#
# this uses the 'options',and 'ppp-on-dialer' files
exec /usr/sbin/pppd modem crtscts /dev/ttyS1 19200 noipdefault defaultroute \
netmask 255.255.255.0 asyncmap 0xa0000 passive \
xonxoff connect $DIALER_SCRIPT
Here's the file /etc/ppp/ppp-on-dialer, referred to by the preceding:
#!/bin/sh
#
exec /usr/sbin/chat -v \
ABORT BUSY \
ABORT 'NO CARRIER' \
'' ATZ \
OK ATDT5551122 \
CONNECT '' \
name: markj \
word: XYXY \
' ' ppp \
hostname: default
Can you create a script along the lines of the above, which exec's your Xisp
dialer?
For me, once I had this pppd setup working, setting up diald was a breeze.
