kay, open up /etc/ppp/options in your least favorite text editor and add a line
that says "noauth" without the quotes.  The authentication failure is because
pppd now defaults to requiring PAP authentication from the other end.  If
you're dialing your ISP, it's not going to authenticate itself and pppd will
die.
