PAT? PAT? Looking at the landware.com FAQ that you must've been looking
at, it looks like they typo'd PAP. PAP stands for Password Authentication
Protocol, is supported by virtually all dialup ISPs, and is also supported
by NIE 1.1 and 2.0. (If you're running NIE 1.0, you've got problems.)
CHAP is not supported by NIE at all, IIRC.
