The "standard" way in debian to login is to use the pppd-"frontends" pon
and poff. They use /etc/ppp.chatscript and /etc/ppp.options_out.

I don't know this programm, but may I suggest xisp ? It is good X frontend
to pppd and a also debian package. ( ftp://134.95.210.54/pub )

The remote server wants you to authentificate using method CHAP.

Your box refuses authentification through method PAP.
Now I am somewhat confused as CHAP != PAP, but I have never used a chap
authentication, so this may be right.
Please ask your ISP if authentication really is CHAP or if it is PAP.
