I'm trying to change the method of ppp again, this time I want to use
pap authentication only.  I think I have several things wrong, so I'm
going to try to fix just one at a time, and work through all the crud
serially.

The first problem I have is connecting at the server end; immediately
after the server puts it's login banner out, it disconnects towards me.
I've taken a look at the hex, I'm sure of this, that my modem is giving
me a CARRIER LOST message after I put out the starting lcp stuff, when
the login process at the other end gets confused.

I have the pp feature enabled in gettytab, like the ppp manpage says,
and I have /usr/local/bin/ppplogin exactly as per form.  Should the
server end be getting confused, when putting out "login:", that it gets
the ppp startup hdlc stuff instead?  The getty manpage makes no
reference at all to this, but the ppp man page does ... I've also taken
a cursory look at the getty source itself, it has provisions to
recognize ppp, although I'm not sure if I need to do anything more than
just enable the pp feature in gettytab.

Thanks ...
