[lug] CHAP PPP dialup

[Kyle Moore]

I have a client that I need to establish a ppp connection to. I was
given a sheet with information on it for the connection by one of our
reps. From the errors I am getting I guess they use CHAP authentication.
Aparantley, I have been blessed in the past because I haven't had
problems with ppp connections in a long time. I don't know what
information I am supposed to use and where it goes. Here is the type of
stuff they gave me on the sheet:

IP Address: 123.456.789.1 
Hostname: user.something at something
Password: normalpassword

I normally just set up ppp connections with Redhat's netcfg but have
also used kppp and wvdial. I turned on debugging in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 and this is what I get in
/var/log/messages. Anyone have any ideas?
