Hello, I have a problem getting my ppp connection to work under freebsd.  
Whenever I dial papchap to connect to my ISP, it dials and then when it is 
supposed to send the username I get an error message saying "error sending 
blank authname" or something to that effect.  I know there is nothing wrong 
with my hardware as I have gotten the connection to work perfectly under 
slackware using the 'pppsetup' command.  Maybe I am doing something wrong in 
the configuration file?  Anyways here is my ppp.conf file.  I have omitted 
my ISP's phone number, my username and my password and replaced them with 
<field> I can assure you however that my #, name, and pass are all of the 
correct values and that the problem does not lie there.  If anyone has any 
ideas please contact me at:
