Hi,
there seems to be a bug in mpd in the handling of PAP 
Authenticate-Ack's.  RFC 1334 section 2.2.2 specifies the packet format 
to look something like the following:

| Code | Identifier | Length | Msg-Length | Message |

Mpd leaves out the Msg-Length field, which confuses at least one ppp 
implementation, namely pppd (used in FreeBSD, Linux, MacOSX, ...).

Trond
