It does not work for you; it DOES work for me.

It was clear; I just wanted to know if you had gotten PAP working at all,
to anything...


I notice the following:

(a)	You use "auth".
	This means "require the peer to authenticate".
	You want to authenticate yourself to the peer,
	not the other way around.
(b)	You use "-pap".
	This means "don't agree to authenticate using PAP".
	But you *do* want to authenticate using PAP.
(c)	You use "+chap".
	This means "require the peer to authenticate using CHAP".
	See my comments for (a).
(d)	The peer wants to authenticate using CHAP regardless of
	what your ISP is saying.
