I commented it out the Auth-Type = MSCHAP, restarted the radiusd and 
found out how to test radiusclient.

I just copied the NT password from the /etc/sambpasswd file and did 
the following:
echo "User-Name = ramses, password = xxxxxxxxxxxxx" | radclient 
127.0.0.1 auth mysecretkey

This is the complete output:

I start to get the feeling my users file is not right. It is now just 
default and I am afraid that when i am going to mess with it (I dont 
understand hell about it even after reading everything for 4 or 5 
times, lack of experience with radius)

That is the second problem. I am using radius to check passwords of 
my VPN server. When I am testing pppd against a chap-secrets file, it 
can authenticate, but it looks to me like the radiusclient is not 
relayting the right info. Can someone tell me where I went wrong with 
configuring it?
