I've been running PPP on NetBSD since pre-1.0 days.  If you're 
adventurous, check out the current-users mailing list archives; I 
published my entire setup there about a year ago (give or take a couple 
months).  It works pretty well, and has required little if any change 
since then.

The short version of the story is this:  use the 'local' flag in 
/etc/ttys, use a dialing script file rather than specifying arguments to 
chat, and read the pppd docs *thoroughly*.  I can't stress this last part 
enough.

PS: the following is illustrative of the "right" way to do a connect script:

connect "chat -f /etc/ppp/dial.scr"

Note the double quotes, not single quotes!  I remember a great deal of 
frustration trying to use the latter. :-)
