Be sure you say "disable chap" as well as "accept chap".  Otherwise,
your end will accept the Ascend's CHAP request, but will also ask the
Ascend to authenticate itself to you using CHAP; the Ascend will
likely not be happy about that.

This seems to be a feature of ppp (the software, not the protocol) :-(.

Here's my conf entry for talking to a Pipe50, with authname, authkey,
and ifaddr altered.  Replace "pap" with "chap" if you need to,
plug in your own values for authname, authkey, and ifaddr, and give
it a try.

ascend:
 disable pap
 disable chap
 disable lqr
 disable vjcomp
 deny vjcomp
 deny lqr
 accept pap
 set authname XXXXXXXX
 set authkey YYYYYYYY
 set ifaddr 1.2.3.4 5.6.7.8
