To be a bit more explicit - make certain that the keyword "noauth" is
in /etc/ppp/peers/provider.
Also, note that you no longer need to have your
/etc/ppp/peers/provider (which is where the contents of bo's
/etc/ppp.options_out got dumped) all one line. (In fact, I don't
think you ever needed it all in one line, but now you certainly can
use multiple lines); mine looks like:
# The chatscript (be sure to edit that file too)
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/provider"
bsdcomp 15
crtscts
mru 2000
mtu 2000
defaultroute
noipdefault
/dev/modem 38400
modem
persist
noauth
I find the file much more readable this way; not that it changes too
often, but it just looked messy before.
