A typical log for pon is:

Aug 30 09:33:41 rakefet chat[11044]
I would say that pppd looks at /etc/ppp/options and at /etc/ppp/peers/ISP_name.
Since you can connect to the ISP as root, I guess that your problem is pppd
permitions. does ls show the existance of /etc/ppp/options when you are
looking as root ? Does pppd is suid ?

They both intend to help the programmer accomodate the terminal.
