Hai, thanks for all the (email-) replies, it's fixed now. As one told me it is indeed a flaw in older versions of pppd, dealt with in later versions with an extra flag 'hide-password'. To circumvent it with older versions you simply have to edit /etc/ppp/peers/provider and comment the 'debug'

and there they are, so what did I do wrong? Nothing. A bug in pppd causes it to put the password in the log when using PAP even if you put a '\q' in front of it. Later versions of pppd fix this by adding the 'hide-password' option. Edit /etc/ppp/peers/provider and delete the 'debug' option.
