Looks like your server is expecting a pap login, which, IIRC, is
unencrypted.  I suggest trying to remove chap on the client (removing
the "secret=MySecret encrypt" ") or enabling Chap on the server.
Obviously, the latter is better.  I haven't played with the tacacs in a
while, though and I could be way off base.

HTH,
