I like PAP and not to bother with the login scripts. I am tired of
explaining to our users how to create automatic login script for getty
login.
Another advantage is that we do not have doubled users and anyone
can login at our server without additional administration effort.
Fo getty login I preffer automatic detection of controlling terminal
(cuaa0) in the system profile and starting ppp. This will not double
usernames.

Thanks for ModemSetupAACmd.
