Believe me when I tell you I do understand what your saying. The problem was that I was tossed in to this after all our fee's were paid to the wholesale dialup provider when he told us they do PAP, and on the day we were ready to start it didn't work. So I was between the rocks and a hard place and was recommended to use mySQL and freeradius, both that I have never used or looked at before a week ago.
It has been authenticating fine so far, no problems noticeable, but I still have to leave the two auth-type in the uesrs file or it quits. It works now and I think I'll leave it and hope it doesn't break. Thanks for all your help.
