Try the basic thing
$ su

# cp /usr/share/doc/ppp-2.4.1/scripts/ppp-on-dialer /etc/ppp
# cp /usr/share/doc/ppp-2.4.1/scripts/ppp-on /etc/ppp
# cat chap-secrets
segg * myISPpassword
where segg is result of
# hostname -f
# cd /etc/ppp
# vim ppp-on

$ echo $PATH

kdebug 1
noipdefault
asyncmap 0
noauth
netmask 255.255.255.255
EOF
# grep daemon syslog.conf
daemon.* /var/log/ppp
$ /etc/ppp/ppp-on
