ppp works fine for me in 2.0.1 as well.
1) i have a dynamically assigned IP address.
2) i let request-route do the dialing [*]
3) ppp is a module (bsd compressors are only built as modules).
but my ip-up script resets the hostname to that of the new ip connection
(via SIOCGIADDR), ip-down resets it to old defaults.

[*] this is purely lazyness; i wrote a chat script and made a
request-route a symlink. i keep meaning to look at diald, but havn't
gotten to it.

Why Linux? source code. POSIX. tcpip. job control. support from the authors.
drivers for most hardware. because one terminal or process is never enough.
forget the other O/Ss, i use Linux- the choice of a gnu generation.
