Yes, I think so. David, all you need to do is construct a chap-secrets
file, format described in the pppd man page: at a minimum, one line

yourusername	*	yourpassword

Also, you may need "name yourusername" on the command line or in one
of the options files. The second "*" and the "noauth" option is needed
so that the terminal server doesn't need a password for your machine,
since it's unlikely to supply one. Permitting all callers to connect
is safe enough, unless you're running a dial-in server.
