It should be part of the pppd configuration, either in one of the
"options" files, or on the pppd command line.  If you don't specify
it, then pppd assumes the system hostname as the default.  Unless your
system hostname happens to be $DOMAIN\\$USERNAME, that's probably not
going to work.  See the pppd man page for details.

The function that's used to determine if there's a viable
MD5-Challenge secret present in the /etc/ppp/chap-secrets file is
have_chap_secret() in pppd/auth.c.
