That sounds correct because those settings are always kept. Have you tried the -v
option with chat and watched the logs? If you use cu or miniterm you should be able
to manually login, etc.

I just use ATD5551212 and then end the chat script when CONNECT comes back.

Same here. Try the chat -v and maybe the debug & kdebug options to pppd and see if
anything obvious shows up in the log. Post your relevant scripts if you like as well.
You can always try CHAP authentication or plain-text (via V.120 mode) if you are stuck
and want to see if it works.
I don't particularly like automatic script builders, and you mentioned RedHat 5.1 so I
presume you are using the GUI tools to set up your connection (maybe I'm wrong though
:). The relevant scripts that it builds are:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/chat-ppp0
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0
To start the link manually do something like:
cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
./ifup-ppp ifcfg-ppp0
HTH.
