Yikes
Just so that I get this....

rebellion pppd[306]: rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x2 <mru 1500> <asyncmap 
0xa0000> <auth pap> <endpoint 13 09 03 00 00 c5 7d ab 24>]
rebellion pppd[306]: sent [LCP ConfNak id=0x2 <auth chap MD5>]

The above indicates that "rebellion" received a request for  
<mru 1500> <asyncmap 0xa0000> <auth pap> <endpoint 13 09 03 00 00 c5 7d 
ab 24>

Decided that it didn't like <auth pap > and asked for <auth chap MD5>

If this is correct then I think I'm beginning to get it...

My  /etc/ppp/options file looks like this...

/dev/tty00
lock
crtscts
57600
modem
noauth
noipdefault
passive
debug

I have a /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file that looks like this...

login * password

with the appropriate login and password

I have an /etc/ppp/chap-secrets file that is identical

I don't know where to set up pppd  to request to use any 
particular authentication  mechanism.

I thought the "noauth" just keeps rebellion from asking
"netopia" to authenticate itself...
