It was happen the same thing to me.
I used a terminal login script in /etc/chatscripts that entry username ,
password and finally ppp to activate the ppp server.
One week ago my ISP has changed his server and, with my old method, I was able
to reach a connection ( with the final acking of IP addresses ) but the link
seems dead.
So I've disabled the login part of the chat script ( I stop after receiving the
CONNECT prompt ) and I've entered my username and password into the file
/etc/ppp/chap.secrets.
I've also configured my options file /etc/ppp/peers/myprovider as :

noauth
...
username my_user_name
name my_user_name


It works for me !

Cheers,
        Davide.
