  And again, my response is the same.  Are you going to write MS-CHAP
authentication code in Perl?  It's probably not rocket science, but I
just don't see why.

  If the users exist elsewhere, then write Perl code to query the
other location for the users clear-text password.  Add that to the
RAD_CHECK list, and the server will take care of doing the right thing
for MS-CHAP.
