Hi Kalin:

Here is my ppp.conf. I am using it on  a laptop running FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE. 

My PCMCIA modem is recognized as sio4:
sio4: <3Com 3CXM/3CCM556> at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 11 function 0 config
33 on pccard0

so I use /dev/cuaa4. Perhaps you should try /dev/cuaa0 ?

 Make sure you add 
allow users $YOUR_ACCOUNT at the top of the ppp.conf, so you can dial
out without being root. Add your account to the operator group, in
/etc/group.
