I'm at the same point in getting diald to work.
Last night I got past a chat problem. So:
a. Are you using the same chat script for diald that you
are for a straight pppd connection?
Maybe post that script?
b. What's in /etc/ppp/options? That's what was broken for me.
I had a call to chat in there, as well as in my diald.conf.
c. What does your diald.conf look like?
As I poked around I had an xterm sitting running "tail -f /var/log/messages"
so I could see what was going on (although looks like you are already
checking that stuff).
I'll race you to get it working :-)
