Yep.  You're missing a default entry in your config file...  Refer 
to ppp.conf.sample for an example:

: # Default setup. Always executed when PPP is invoked.
: #  This section is *not* loaded by the ``load'' or ``dial'' commands.
: #
: #  This is the best place to specify your modem device, it's DTR rate,
: #  and any logging specification.  Logging specs should be done first
: #  so that subsequent commands are logged.
: #
: default:
:  set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
:  set device /dev/cuaa1
:  set speed 115200
:  set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"

Maybe you haven't created /etc/ppp.conf ?  Have you read the man page 
(best place to start) ?
