FreeRADIUS handles CHAP fine, so there's nothing to configure for the Access-Challenge part of the exchange.

Configure your user in the users file (to begin with, and then later in the user directory/source of your choice, like a database or LDAP directory) and make sure you have a password set for it. To see which password obfuscation/encryption schemes work with which authentication scheme in RADIUS (not just FreeRADIUS), see http://deployingradius.com/documents/protocols/compatibility.html
