rlm_chap(5)							 FreeRADIUS Module						       rlm_chap(5)

NAME
       rlm_chap - FreeRADIUS Module

DESCRIPTION
       The rlm_chap module provides CHAP functionality.

       This  module  validates	a  user  with CHAP authentication.  If called in Authorize, it will look for CHAP-Password attribute in the Acess-
       Request and adds an Auth-Type attribute set to CHAP if the Config-Items list unless Auth-Type has already set.

       CHAP authentication requires access to the clear-text password for the user.  Standard Unix system authentication  or  passwords  encrypted
       via crypt() are not compatible with CHAP.
