I think your /etc/ppp/pap-secrets should have chmod 600 and root.root
owner.

Furthermore, if you're authenticating your users via login option you
should have this line

*	*	""	*

REMEMBER to add the last asterisk, they should be FOUR entries. Dunno why,
but it seems that ppp-2.3.3 wants all the four fields, while ppp-2.2.0 did
work also with just the first three.

Hope it helps,
