huntgroups are failing auth - missing Chap Password

[Ivan Kalik]

How difficult can it be to follow clearly written instructions?

No. It doesn't. Why? Let's have a look at the password entry from users
file:

Cleartext-Password := "testing"

Can you see *any* difference between that and what you were using? Fix it
and it will work.

>testuser Huntgroup-Name =="testgroup", CHAP-Password == "password" yields
>the same error as having used Cleartext-Password, User-Password or no

"like no password at all" - exactly. Your password entry is wrong. Use
entries that documentation suggests. Stop hanging hopelessly to the way
"it used to be" - I think that you have established by now that the
"old way" doesn't work.
