No, according to your logs FreeBSD isn't asked to do PAP even when
FreeBSD and NetBSD start the PPP protocol (almost) the same. There
must be a difference so that PAP is requested.

Before the PPP protocol starts, there is the chat dialog.

Please show the chat logs for the working FreeBSD session and
the failing NetBSD session.
