Can you indulge my curiousity and point out (or point me at the docs that explain) what changed?

User-Password is an attribute that goes into a RADIUS packet. Cleartext-Password is the "known good" password that the server has. You can use Cleartext-Password to do PAP, CHAP, or MS-CHAP authentication. But you can't really "compare" it to anything. As someone who has to dip in now & again

to keep a RADIUS platform operational, I'm finding the docs a bit bewildering and the differences in configs between versions difficult to locate and understand.

The new configs are documented a lot better than the old ones. There is little documentation saying what the differences are. Alan DeKok.
