I'm running a similar setup, but did things slightly different and my wtmp
logs work rather well. Seems like someone else who was starting pppd
directly from /etc/ttys posted having a similar problem.

In my /etc/ttys I have this:

ttyc01 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" unknown on insecure

Then in /etc/gettytab:

std.115200|115200-baud:\
        :np:sp#115200:pp=/usr/sbin/pppd

The built in getty can now autodetect ppp and start pppd for you (think
this started in 2.2.2 or .5?)

Add the -detach and 115200 to this file .. I have a couple of other things
in there, but they probably aren't necessary.

You don't have to put the usernames in pap-secrets, I just have:

* * ""

Hope this helps :)
