request for PPP invocation script with CHAP/PAP auth on 4.0F

Using the stock built in PPP environment to DEC UNIX 4.0F we would
appreciate some assistance in configuring a dialout PPP session to
a router, apparently a Telebit, with a NYC phone number, that is
expecting username and password to come via the CHAP or PAP protocol
rather than through a chat script looking for a login: prompt.

Ideally the link should be dedicated and auto-restart unattended
if the link disconnects.

Does the stock pppd properly use /etc/ppp/{pap,chap}-secrets?
