Here are a couple of scripts I have found during my travels. I hope they
help.

PPTP doesn't do that (the protocol doesn't deal with users). Set your
ppp options appropriately.  By default I am pretty sure it does log
connect/disconnect (with username if available) to syslog.

"worst case" you can always add something to /etc/ppp/ip-{up,down} to
record info in whatever format you want wherever you like.
