Guys, I can now answer my own question.  What was missing is that I
did not have all the ppp modules loaded - I only had some.

What tipped me off to what the prblem was, was adding "kdebug 7" to
the ppp options.  That gave me more info in /var/log/syslog.

What solved the problem was to add the following to /etc/modules:

# additional modules for ppp
slch
ppp_generic
ppp_async
pppoe
pppox

Thx.
