No, this is not the equivalent. L2tpd can assign IP addresses, but
rp-l2tp cannot. Unless rp-l2tp gets help from a RADIUS or DHCP plugin.

For testing purposes (will only work with one static IP address)
try this:

"debug refuse-pap require-chap 10.0.0.200:10.0.0.37 ...etc."

Add a line:
mask 0

I forgot to add this to the RPM.

It is a password for the L2TP server. Remove that line.
