/etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/ppp/ip-down should pass parameters to ip-up.local and ip-down.local with "$@", *not* with $* reproduce error: If you start a pppd with 'pty' parameter the ip-up/down scripts are called with an empty $2 (tty_name). In ip-up/down.local all parameter positions after that are shifted by one. solution: edit /etc/ppp/ip-{up,down} and change all occurences of $* into "$@" (with doublequotes)
