The remote end has 'noccp' or equivalent in its options (see pppd man
page). Nothing you can do about it unless you also manage that system.
With modem connections, CCP software compression has little advantage, as
most modems do a good job compressing data in hardware. Software
compression just adds another layer of negotiation, memory overhead and
possible connection problems, so I suggest you ignore it, or even add
'noccp' to your own options.

Comment: Using kdebug clutters you log. Unless you have good reason,
leave kdebug out of your options. Use debug instead; the messages are
usually more helpful.
