I now have diald dialing but I am not getting connected. In my ppp lg I get the following errors. pppd[286]: sent [LCP ConfReg id=0x1 <magic 0xffffa064> <pcomp> <accomp>] last message repeated 9 times pppd[286]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests pppd[286]: Connection Terminated pppd[286]: Exit.
And I noticed in the diald.log that it says the site it is dialing is 172.16.1.100. In my working Debian system the site it is dialing is a valid internet address, probably the address that my isp assigns my modem when I get connected. Also while the non working computer is connected to the isp, about 30 seconds if I do a ifconfig the ip address on sl0 is the fake one I gave it in the diald.options file. What would keep the isp from giving me an ip address.
