  Fix the NAS.  You bought it, you know what make/model it is, so you
can find documentation for it.  Maybe try asking the vendor for
documentation?

  Install the server.  Put a user in /etc/passwd (or NIS).  Send a PAP
request to the server.  Authentication will work.

  If it doesn't work, it's because:

  a) You're sending CHAP, not PAP

  b) you edited the configuration files, and broke system authentication
