Hi all- I have a question regarding chap. I configured a dialer profile and used chap, I then specified the "dialer remote name" and then set the password on the remote peer. Then I added the "ppp chap hostname" and ppp chap password" on each side with passwords. Although I did see both sides authenticating successfully via debug ppp neg, the link didnt come up. I had to remove the "dialer remote name" on both sides. I assume the dialer remote name takes some precedence over the ppp chap hostname command. Anyone have any input on this one for me? Here are my configs.

Why wont the call proceed? They seem to reach my max-auth of 5 and stop.
