Actually Phil, let me tell you that you'll have fewer headaches in the
end by converting as many as possible to PAP. If you don't, the next
round of calls you'll get will be people who's scripts are failing
because your PM3s don't answer with the prompts quick enough. This
happens to us at peak times when the PM3s are busy with more important
stuff. The user's script will fail because of the timing issue and then
they get unhappy.

Note that this isn't a criticism of the PM3. We love them. It is a
criticism of Windows 3.x, Trumpet Winsock scripting, and non-PAP
authentication.
