You need to 'accept pap', and probably 'set openmode active'.
here is what I use (though I use chap these days):
You can just comment out 'accept chap' and uncomment 'accept pap',
I had been using PAP earlier.
Uncomment the 'set debug ...' line and everything you every wanted to
know about what is going on between you and your provider will appear
in /var/log/messages.
:myisp
deny lqr
disable lqr
disable pred1
deny pred1
set timeout 0
# set debug phase chat lcp lqm hdlc async
set phone 5551212
# enable pap
# accept pap
accept chap
# enable chap
set authname myname
set authkey mychapsecret
set ifaddr 205.216.174.5 205.216.174.1
set openmode active
dial
add 0 0 205.216.174.1

kill routed.
