this line sais that _YOUR_ machine asked to get the given IP address
assigned to it (it is a 'sent' line, not a 'rcvd' line). it does NOT mean
the other side (i.e. the server) agreed to assign this IP address to your
machine. i would suggest adding a 'nodefualtip' line at the end of
the 'pptp' command line. this fixed some problem for my connection
(thought for a different reason). however, this is not realy your problem,
as can be see later on in the logs (althought it may be that u have two
problems, with this being one of them):

what does "USE_CRYPT" here mean?
also, actcom supports pap, but not chap (as far as i know).

user part is incorrect. should be the SAME as written (later on) in the
pap-secret file, i.e. edrori@IActcom .
also, mtu and mru should be 1452, as recommended by the FAQ. are you sure
you're using an updated version of the FAQ? its now on

as can be seen here, the server asked your machine to authenticate
via pap, and your (client) machine rejected this authentication method. if
you'll look at your log, you'll see no line showing that authentication
was successfull. here is a similar snip from my log of a successfull
connection:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apr 4 22:35:51 simey pppd[698]: rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x5 <mru 1500> <auth
pap>
<magic 0x2abf38e>]
Apr 4 22:35:51 simey pppd[698]: sent [LCP ConfAck id=0x5 <mru 1500> <auth
pap>
<magic 0x2abf38e>]
Apr 4 22:35:51 simey pppd[698]: sent [PAP AuthReq id=0x1
user="choo@IActcom" password=<hidden>]
Apr 4 22:35:53 simey pppd[698]: rcvd [PAP AuthAck id=0x1 ""]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
as you can see, the server sent me a request to perform pap
authentication, and my client agreed to make the pap authentication, and
then sent the authentication data (user+password), and then the server
send my client a 'pap authentication acknowledge' message.

what is the second line for? its not used at all, so you may remove it.
