You've sent us too little information to get a definitive answer. My best
guess is that you set +pap in the line that invokes pppd, which means *your*
system is trying to demand that the *ISP* authenticate itself. But that's
only a guess.
Another guess is that the ISP requires pap authentication but you are asking
pppd/chat to use userid/password authentication. Or maybe you have
pap-secrets set up wrong.
For a better answer, send us:
a. the line that invokes pppd
b. the contents of the ppp-on-dialer chat script
c. the contents of pap-secrets
d. the complete set of log entries from *one* failed attempt (should be only
about 8 lines)
IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to mask out any password information in what you send.
