PAP is generally preferred over CHAP for speed. Most ISP use pap on the
dial-in because authentication takes place very quickly. I am not familiar
with how you would use an NT database to authenticate a user dialing into a
Cisco device unless you were using TACACS and TACACS was using NT as it's
database.

If you are speaking about a cisco device dialing into an NT RAS system, then
you can use MS-CHAP on the router (which I have never sone I just know it is
an option).

I could be wrong, but I think that you have to use PAP with one-time
password systems like SecurID or SafeWord.

Please, correct me if I am wrong!

When you are using an NT user database to authenticate your dial-in
users
you can't use CHAP because NT will not recognise the encrypted CHAP
password.
