     When I connect to my ppp server I sometimes can connect to the server but
   never get beyond that actual connect message.  I have set up everything
   as per the handbooks suggestions and "show route" shows that there is a 
   "default" entry aimed at the server.

Try adding the following lines to your ppp.conf:

  disable pred1
  deny pred1

I had very similar problems connecting to a linux box, but now it
works just fine.
