Hello,

My overall plan is to authenticate from my Draytek 2600W ADSL router to a RSA 
ACE/Server which provides one-time passwords using a hardware SecurID keyfob.

The RSA ACE/Server supports authentication via SecurID (UDP/5500) or via RADIUS, but 
the RADIUS server only supports PAP and EAP authentication (there is a good reason for 
this), whilst the Draytek only supports MS-CHAP. Doh!

I can however authenticate fine from the Draytek 2600 to FreeRadius 0.9.3 which I'm 
running on a Sun Ultra 5. I'm very pleased with FreeRadius - it's also working very 
well with Wireless 802.1X / EAP authentication.

I was hoping to use the Proxy feature of FreeRadius to take the authentication request 
from the Draytek (MS-CHAP) and pass it on to the RSA ACE/Server (PAP), but when 
proxying, it would only use the same authentication scheme as sent from the Draytek 
(i.e. MS-CHAP).

Is there any way to proxy a request and change the authentiation type at the same time 
- so take a MS-CHAP request from the Draytek and proxy it on to the RSA ACE/Server as 
a PAP request?? 


As a complete aside (and not high on my list), I was able to compile 0.9.3 OK, but 
couldn't compile 1.0.0pre1 at all - failed whilst compiling md4.c. Is this a common 
fault? I've not spotted anything on the lists about this. 

P.S. The RSA ACE/Server is also running on the Sparc 5. I'm running FreeRadius on 
UDP/1812 and RSA ACE/Server RADIUS on UDP/1645.

If this fails, I do know that I can use Funk Proxy because it will take the MS-CHAP 
RADIUS request and forward that as a SecurID (UDP/5500) request to the ACE/Server. I'd 
rather use open source software though as I prefer the open development model (and 
would hope to contribute back one day).


Thanks in advance.
