Is the NT box doing MS-CHAP? The MS CHAP is non-standard and doesn't work
with anyone doing standard CHAP (us). CHAP uses MD5, MS-CHAP uses MD-4 and
then passes it into DES. No real advantage at all, just marketing hype on
their part about how it is better. This was discussed on
comp.protocols.ppp recently.
>Is there anything extra I need to set up on the PM in order to allow CHAP?
The password must be stored in cleartext in the /etc/raddb/users file. CHAP
relies on cleartext passwords and cannot use UNIX passwords.

See if they can use PAP instead.
>Sent to port S7: 26 bytes LCP Request-1
> Authentication-Protocol = PAP
We ask for PAP.
>Recvd from port S7: 11 bytes LCP Request-99
> Authentication-Protocol = CHAP 0x80
They ask for CHAP...
But this format is weird - where did we ACK it? Did we?
