Here's one (with comments elided and the username changed):
# /etc/diald/diald.options
device /dev/ttyS2
accounting-log /var/log/diald.log
fifo /var/run/diald.fifo
debug 77
mode ppp
local 10.0.0.1
remote 10.0.0.2
netmask 255.0.0.0
two-way
reroute
defaultroute
connect "chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/provider"
lock
modem
crtscts
connect-timeout 90
dial-fail-limit 2
died-retry-count 0
include /etc/diald/standard.filter
dynamic
pppd-options noauth user ispname ipcp-accept-local ipcp-accept-remote
The solution to your problem probably is the last two items on the
pppd-options line. The 'connect' line that I use points to the chatscript
used by pon, but that is not necessary.
/etc/ppp/options contains a number of options that the diald docs say will
conflict with diald, but I've not seen it happen.
