(ASCEND) Pipeline 15, CHAP, RADIUS Problem



I am testing a P15 that dials into a Max4000 and authenticates via RADIUS
using UNIX passwords.  I would like to have this working because the P15
supports MP+ and we would like to recommend it to our users.

Using RADIUS and UNIX passwords I could not authenticate via the P15.
Ascend tech support says that because the Max will allow CHAP
(Ethernet/Answer/PPP Options/Recv Auth=Either) the P15 will try to use
CHAP.  Obviously this fails with a "LAN Security Error" because CHAP will
not work with RADIUS and UNIX passwords.

Is there any way around this?  Can I force the P15 to use PAP?  I would
like to not have to turn CHAP off on the Max as a solution, especially
since my SOHOs connect with P50/P75' and CHAP.

I know that V.120 with a terminal login is also a solution but, correct me
if I'm wrong, this is single channel with no DBA?

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
