Get the latest version of ppp from http://www.freebsd.org/~brian.  
You'll be using PAP or CHAP with Windows NT.  There are sections in 
both the handbook and the man page about this.  You need to remove 
your "set login" script and do a "set authname" and "set authkey".  

If your NT server is talking CHAP, you'll need to have DES installed 
on your machine before building the latest ppp (unless you've got 
service pack 3 installed and some smart-ass^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^HNT guru 
has dicked around with your registry.....).

If you're still having problems, check out the FAQ at

  http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/userppp.html

and send the relevent logs of your ppp `conversation'.

Cheers.
