In general, you only ever want *one* of "enable pap" and "accept pap";
one means "OK, I'll do PAP if the other side wants it" and the other
means "I'm going to require him to PAP authenticate with me." Your
ISP isn't going to authenticate with you. Search the archives for
my responses in January and February, I posted a tutorial on IIJPPP
twice in the last two months. If you find the right posting, it tells
you how to start PPP at system boot, setup auto-dial with routing, and
everything else.
