One more to add:

Feb 11 16:18:45 chadlap pppd[11930]: By default the remote system is required 
to authenticate itself
Feb 11 16:18:45 chadlap pppd[11930]: (because this system has a default route 
to the internet)
Feb 11 16:18:45 chadlap pppd[11930]: but I couldn't find any suitable secret 
(password) for it to use to do so.
Feb 11 16:18:45 chadlap pppd[11930]: (None of the available passwords would 
let it use an IP address.)

Is this on the client or the server side:

Preload is the server and chadlap is the dialup
