pppd: ``chatscript failed'' - OpenBSD

Hello,
I have searched for the keywords ``chatscript'' and ``pppd'' in these forums, but didn't find anything that really helped me.
---
My problem: After having read the kernel ppp pages in the FreeBSD handbook (plus another manual and the pppd/chat manpages), i tried to dial my provider under OpenBSD 2.9, but it didn't work. Using ``#pppd /dev/cua00 38400 connect '/usr/sbin/chat -f /etc/chatscript' defaultroute crtscts noauth'', the modem makes some strange noise, stops then and the program tells me that the ``chatscript failed''. If i try ``chat '' AT OK ATDT**** login: ***** password: ****** annexppp'', it shows up AT, then stops. Just using ``#pppd'' (I paste the config files below), i get another ``chatscript failed''. /var/log/ppp.log doesn't tell me anything more but this error...
Ok, here my config files:

/etc/ppp/options:

crtscts
modem
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -f /etc/ppp/login.chat.script"
noipdefault
domain ***.***
:***.***.***.*
defaultroute

/etc/ppp/login.chat.script:

ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO CARRIER' "" AT OK ATDT******* CONNECT "" TIMEOUT 10 ogin:-\\r-ogin: ***** TIMEOUT 5 sword: *****

/etc/chatscript:

ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO CARRIER' '' ATZ OK ATDT******
CONNECT ''
'' ''
'' ''
Userid:--Userid: *****
assword?--assword? *****
---
I'm a bit ashame not being able to ask a concrete question (because i really don't know what's wrong). I'm using a 56k modem and a kinda ``normal'' provider... I have tried, like i said, various examples from the man pages and other tutorials (they all differ)... Some of them let the modem at least dial and break after one minute (though i don't seem to be connected, but at least it shows that the modem works with OpenBSD). I beg OpenBSD users on this board to paste their config-files and/or tell me if i'm missing any steps (maybe i forgot a config file or something?! /etc/resolv.conf has a nameserver entry, btw).
Thanks in advance!

pppd-radius

PPPD-RADIUS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						    PPPD-RADIUS(8)

NAME

       radius.so - RADIUS authentication plugin for pppd(8)

SYNOPSIS

       pppd [ options ] plugin radius.so

DESCRIPTION

       The  RADIUS  plugin for pppd permits pppd to perform PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2 authentication against a RADIUS server instead of the
       usual /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets files.

       The RADIUS plugin is built on a library called radiusclient which has its own configuration files (usually in  /etc/radiusclient),  consult
       those files for more information on configuring the RADIUS plugin

OPTIONS

       The RADIUS plugin introduces one additional pppd option:

       radius-config-file filename
	      The  file  filename  is  taken  as  the  radiusclient  configuration  file.   If	this  option  is  not  used,  then the plugin uses
	      /etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf as the configuration file.

       avpair attribute=value
	      Adds an Attribute-Value pair to be passed on to the RADIUS server on each request.

       map-to-ifname
	      Sets Radius NAS-Port attribute to number equal to interface name (Default)

       map-to-ttyname
	      Sets Radius NAS-Port attribute value via libradiusclient library

USAGE

       To use the plugin, simply supply the plugin radius.so option to pppd, and edit /etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf appropriately.   If  you
       use  the  RADIUS  plugin,  the  normal  pppd authentication schemes (login, checking the /etc/ppp/*-secrets files) are skipped.	The RADIUS
       server should assign an IP address to the peer using the RADIUS Framed-IP-Address attribute.
