Ok, well the UUNET docs states that I can use PAP or CHAP. Here's what
their doc says about it though:

Althought the REseller may not be using CHAP, they must configure their
RADIUS server to respond to a CHAP request by requesting PAP
authentication after declining CHAP. This is done during the LCP phase of
creating a PPP session.

Is this doable in freeradius?

Running freeradius in debug mode, this is indeed what the LDAP module is
doing. After reading through the section of the FAQ you pointed out, and
the "Interoperation wi� PAP and CHAP" section of RFC2138 I'm starting to
understand what the deal is.
