Hi Shaun,
I had a similar issue connecting to an ISP here in the UK and I found the
solution was to add the word "callin" to the end of my ppp authentication
pap line.
R1(config)#ppp authentication pap callin
"The callin keyword is optional and specifies that authentication is forced
for incoming calls only. This is known as unidirectional PPP authentication
and is implemented in ISP sample configurations.
Unidirectional authentication is used in ISP sample configurations because
non-Cisco routers that do not support bi-direction authentication are
potentially in use at the ISP."

Not exactly what your looking for but it may help anyway.
Philip.
