Once upon a time there used to be a software called diald to do this. Looks like it is dead now. Incidentally, the latest pppd can do dial on demand. > � I tried using wvdial.....but it ain't seemin to run > /etc/ppp/ip-up.local.

No wonder. ip-up.local is called *after* the ppp link is established. wvdial dials, then calls pppd which negotiate the ppp link. How can wvdial run from ip-up.local? Use pppd to dial, and use its dial-on-demand features. Your best bet.
