RH ships broken PPP dialer? I'm dumb?

[Alan Mead <adm ipat com>]

RH 6.1 on Intel.  When I use the setup wizard in Gnome and then use the RH
ppp dialer, pppd spews messages about "unable to find secret" all over
messages.  What format is correct?  I have all of the following, made by
various tools, in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets:

amead	*	<secret>
amead	*	<secret>	*
amead	ppp0	<secret>

BTW, I do NOT really want to use the dialer.  I want to understand the
scripts involved.  Are there any docs for ppp-watcher?
