Ok, that explains it. I DID try PAP first ... it wouldn't work, though it
does work on my other machine with that provider just fine. As for
version, yeah, the old one must still be in hamm or something because I
get this constructed chat command line.  That has been a major problem
with things like the ppp-on scripts that many distributions put out.

I would tell you which version I installed but I will not be able to until
I get back home and plug the darned network back into that system.

THis is COMPLETELY different than my version. I suppose I did get the
older one.
