I don't think so.  Our terminal server here at the UO spouts the same 
garbage (probably some Win95 hackup) but ppp works fine.

I wasn't sure on chap/pap.  A friend's OS/2 box drops LCP and then 
reports the remote said "greetings!" and links up fine, so I suggested it 
as an off-the-wall thing :-)  

I forgot to check this:  when does it say "dial OK!" and "Login OK!"?  I 
seem to remember login OK! appearing before it was done.

You may also try doing "set debug chat" and see how far it is getting 
through the script.
