You need to understand that ppp is a peer to peer protocol. There is no
server and no client: it works exactly the same way whether you are a user
dialing in or an ISP. When you specify an authentication protocol you are
telling pppd to demand that the other end authenticate to you using that
protocol. That's how an ISP goes about requiring you to use PAP. He, of
course, will not authenticate to you.
