Hi,
I encounter an chap authorization problem using pppoe3.8, ppp 2.4.4b1 
and Freeradius 1.1.3.
The relevant logs are:

Altough I can obtain authorization using:

[root at localhost]# echo "User-Name = test1, CHAP-Password=password" | 
radclient localhost auth password
Received response ID 100, code 2, length = 62
        Framed-Compression = None

        Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.0
        Framed-MTU = 1492
        Framed-Protocol = PPP
        Port-Limit = 1

Do anyone encounter the same problem?

I can add that chap fails with all ppp versions (>=2.4.2)
Thank you,

Alex
