Well, as in all things, that depends, (sigh). The options specified here should work with most servers.
However, if it does NOT work, READ THE TEMPLATE FILE (/etc/ppp/options.tpl) and the pppd man pages and speak to the sysadmin/user support people who run the server to which you are connecting.
You should also note that the connect scripts presented here also use some command line options to pppd to make things a bit easier to change.
