I dunno if this is the same cause of the problem you're having, but
something similar happened to me a couple of years back... I didn't
have the dummy addresses (192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.100) properly set up in
/etc/hosts or in my local cacheing nameserver so pppd would hang while
(I think) trying to do an inverse lookup on them. Pppd would run fine
manually without diald as the lookups would fail immediately due to no
route to the nameservers.
Hope this helps!
