Thanks Alan... You're right - the user entry is not on the named lines....
I'll keep looking.

So the answer is that CHAP is't working because it doesn't know the clear-text password. It doesn't know the clear-text password because that entry of the users file wasn't matched. That entry of the users file wasn't matched for reasons which aren't clear in the debug log. My suggestion is to simplify the test even more. Avoid realms entirely. Use just a plain user named "user", with password "user". If that works for CHAP (and it should), then make the test more complicated until it breaks. You'll then know what is causing the problem, which goes a long way to fixing it. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
