In the users file I changed the default line from Auth-Type=System to Auth-Type := Local, Password == "stealme" and by doing this all users have to use 'stealme' as their password then to authenticate. Certainly this is not how CHAP protocol is supposed to work. What I need is to be able to do PAP and CHAP using the System to check the unix shadow file for their password to authenticate correctly. It seems this change does no do that. Does anyone else know how to do this kind of authentication?
