There is no decrypt.  The server will crypt the plain text password that
comes in the request and compare that to the stored crypted password.
That is why only PAP will work since other protocols do not send the
password in cleartext in the request.  This is why it is recommended
that the cleartext password be stored in the DB since then all protocols
will work.
