Hello Brian,

I use DIP to initiate a PPP session.  You are able to send any responses
to any prompts that you receive.  Take a look at the man page for DIP,
and it will give you a good idea.  I do suggest that before you try it
in a script, that you use the -t and -v parameters.  This will allow a
verbose interactive login session.
