ok, what are you talking about? 802.1X does not know ANYTHING about
CHAP. CHAP is a protocol written and defined for PPP whereas 802.1X
defines methods in order to be able NOT to use PPP over local area
networks. 802.1X only defines transport for EAP, which is much more
general and represents a kind of alternative for CHAP.

Do you mean EAP/MD5? In the example you've provided, you seem to use
EAP/MD5 whether you are aware of it or not.

if you want to use EAP/MD5, you should configure the eap module in the
authorize and authenticate sections, see the EAP/MD5 FAQ on
www.freeradius.org/doc/EAP-MD5.html
