You got the IP address for the local machine and the remote dial in server - that's 
the last stage in the ppp setup. Unfortunately I have been facing simillar situation 
but got no answers for the cause. There is a
problem but I don't think compression is the cause.

Ofcourse if somebody could explain what exactly happens while establishing a ppp 
connection it would be great.
