I'm trying to expand that into a book. So far, I'm (still) at about 150 pages of information I've seen *nowhere* else. But between work, FreeRADIUS and something called "family", there isn't much time left over for the book.
I have checked out radiusd.conf and the rlm_pap manual pages and I think I was unclear. The password is sent in "clear" but is stored in MD5 (because of ethical reason, the password should not clearly appear in the database). I think I just need to change the authentication request...but I can't find it.
You can't change the authentication request. It's controlled by the NAS.
I'm sorry again, I wouldn't have said "authentication request" but "authentication SQL request" made by the freeradius server to the SQL database. I hope I was clear now. BTW, good luck for your book...
