ppp logging?

I am running 4.1-STABLE and having issues with ppp logging.

I created /var/log/ppp.log and nothing will log to it
when ppp runs (userland pppoe).

My ppp.conf file contains the normal stuff:

default:
  set log Phase Chat IPCP CCP tun command
  set redial 5 10000
  set reconnect 5 10000

att:
  set device "!/usr/sbin/pppoe -i hme0"
  set mtu max 1492
  set speed sync
...
...

It appears to be logging to /var/log/daemon
(thanks to daemon.info  -> /var/log/daemon in
syslog.conf)

but not ppp.log

What am I missing to log stuff to ppp.log??

I did just add this to syslog.conf:

!ppp
*.* <tab> /var/log/ppp.log


and now, I get logging in ppp.log but ONLY on
reboot/shutdown.
It will not log anything on startup - and all my logging in

/var/log/daemon for ppp is now only shutdown as well.

Startup is NOT getting logged....

Help?
