This is an interesting message. Do you possibly have conflicting
options in your pppd options file?
From the diald man page:
WARNING: Note that some pppd commands
should not be specified, not even in the
/etc/ppp/options file, because they will interfere
with the proper operation of diald. In particular
you should not specify the tty device, the baud
rate, nor any of the options crtscts, xonxoff,
-crtscts, defaultroute, lock, netmask, -detach,
modem, local, mtu and proxyarp. Use the equivalent
diald commands to control these pppd settings.
