To turn on pppd debugging, you'll need to add a line like the following to
your /etc/syslog.conf file:

	daemon.debug	/path/to/log-file

Then restart syslog by sending it a hang-up:

	kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`

Finally, add a line in your /etc/ppp/options file:

	debug

Including the contents of the /path/to/log-file will (usually) help
immensely in debugging ppp problems.
