Folks,  
        I am sure some of you have done this before but it is new to
me and  the people supporting me are not being very helpful.

My work is changing over from using an annex terminal server to using
an outsourced dial-in pool.  I believe that the device handling the
dial in will be a cisco router of some sort.  I have no clue as to how
I should set up my ppp to talk to the cisco.  I have tried dialling in
to the new service and I see LCP packets being fired at me from the
other end.  We are supposed to be authenticating to a RADIUS server on
our network but the mechanism is a bit of a mystery - all I get from
the people setting it up is "in your win98 dial up networking you will
be prompted for a username and password - just fill that in and it
will work", clearly this is no use to me ;-)  Any one know what I need
to set up here to make things work - PAP? CHAP?
