  Hi !

  I spent some time to solve this problem and found nothing than
to patch pppd code. I don't remember details, but original pppd 
did something different from what I wanted :-)
  So I've collect changes and you may try to use them, but I am
using FreeBSD 2.1.5 RELEASE, so this patch is for FreeBSD 2.1.5
source code.

  Bye, Vladimir.


Line in login.config:

/AutoPPP/ -     -       /usr/sbin/pppd file /etc/ppp/options.mgetty 


Contents of file /etc/ppp/options.mgetty (just to be exact)

auth
-chap
+pap
login
debug
modem
dns1 xx.xx.xx.xx
dns2 xx.xx.xx.xx

Patch for file auth.c in the pppd source code:
