Alan: Thank you very much for your reply. Please do not get mad at me. I have understood that Radius itself can not authenticate MS-CHAP passwords; my question then is what can I do with those passwords. I have seen examples of authenticating these passwords against a Windows server. Is there any other ways to authenticate these passwords?

I just want to know what happens when Radius receives a request with a MS-CHAP password, how it authenticates the user?
It doesn't.
How many times do I have to say it's impossible before you will believe me?
It's impossible. Stop trying to make it work, and stop asking questions about it. It's impossible.
Honestly, it's impossible.
