  See the comments in the EAP module, the "pwd" section.

  All of the "authorize" section is processed, *but* only the Cleartext-Password is taken from the output.

  Then do that in the "authorize" section.  EAP-PWD is more like EAP-MD5 than it's like PEAP.

  I didn't say that.  It does work.  There is no magic in the server.  You can always update an outer session from an inner one.

  <shrug>  If it works...
