MD5 usage in the kernel.
I'm working on an l2tp netgraph node. I need md5. Specifically, the RFC says: The Response is a 16 octet value reflecting the CHAP-style [RFC1994] response to the challenge. I've had a look at md5.c, but there is no documentation on the usage md5. In this specific case, how do I call it? If CHAP uses MD5, how does ng_ppp or kernel ppp handle this (or does it)?

It just seems to be such a simple function that md5 in the kernel is perfect for it.
