What are you seeing in the log? If you aren't generating a log, that
should be the first thing to change (use debug option for pppd and "-v"
with chat). Do you have pppd setuid root? Are all scripts
world-executable?

I can't figure that part out, but I'll make a wild stab. Maybe one of
your scripts says pppd or chat without a path and /usr/sbin isn't on
your path when you log in as a regular user. If you log in as root and
then su username, you'd still have root's path.
