The old RHL9 documentation http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/ref-guide/s1-networkscripts-interfaces.html tells us "The PPP interface configuration file [me: ifcfg-ppp<X> (where <X> is a unique number corresponding to a specific interface)] is created automatically when wvdial, the Network Administration Tool or Kppp is used to create a dialup account. More googleing tells me, that indeed wvdial makes use of an ifcfg-<device> configuration file.
