No chatscript there.  You have uncovered a bug, though: he has 
ln -F "$BASEDIR/${selection}.ctn" $HOME/.ppprc
where he should have 
ln -f "$BASEDIR/${selection}.ctn" $HOME/.ppprc

The result is that .ppprc gets created the first time you run dunc but
never gets changed.

That may be an effect of the above bug.  You tried PAP first?  I'm
convinced you have an obsolete version, though.  I'll have to go and look
at what is really in unstable.

'ps -awx | grep chat' produces:
11543  S2 S      0:00 /usr/sbin/pppd connect /usr/sbin/chat -v -f /home/john/.dunc/tmp.11527; rm -f /home/john/.dunc/tmp.11527 /dev/ttyS2 115200 debug netmask
