So no matter which one you do first, when you do the second, it hangs?
Weird.

What kernel are you using? Did you do the config your self? 1.2 kernels
default to supporting two ppp sessions at once. I've also done it, though
I don't start ppp with the above command. I have seperate options files
for the printer port and the modem port pppd's. Oh, check /etc/pppd/options
as there might be an option (like default route) which should only be
used by one of the daemons.

Take care,
