Try ppp, and at the command prompt type dial papchap. Also add allow username to ppp.conf and add yourself to the network group in /etc/group. Make sure allow [username] is before papchap. As for getting the shell to work, are you doing this ppp -direct shell If so, it is because ppp looks at your ppp.conf file for these labels. So far you have default, which it always reads first, and papchap. /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup is read when the connection is established. Maybe you could put your shell script in here or call it from this file. Good Luck.
