PPP server

I have been trying to work with PPPd with no success. I can make it work great as a client dialing into an ISP, but I am wanting to make it a PPP server for someone to dial into.

Here is what I'm trying to do with PPPd as a server:
1) Customers to dial into me as if I was an ISP.
2) Get a DHCP address, not the same IP each time they dial into me.
3) Get Winblows to authenticate without any special configuration at the customer side.

I have gotten PPP to authenticate with Winblows, but when someone calls in, they mgetty answers the line and shows a login prompt. After they provide a special login script to provide the "login" and "password" responses, PPP then does CHAP/PAP correctly with Windows. I want to eliminate this extra step.
