Once upon a time Kevin Smith shaped the electrons to say...
>>>Received LCP_CONFIGURE_REQUEST on port S45 of 27 bytes containing:
>>>01 01 00 1f 01 04 05 f2 03 04 c0 23 05 06 00 0f
>>>0d ee 07 02 08 02 13 09 03 00 40 f9 11 40 d1
>>>Sending LCP_CONFIGURE_NAK to port S45 of 9 bytes containing:

Yep. The other end want's *us* to auth to *them*.

We will NOT do that with PAP.

It is really silly to do it at all - I mean, they called us after all,
they know who we are. But we can be configured to do it with CHAP if
need be.

The best thing to do is get the other end to stop asking.
