Re: [openwisp] openwisp-radius & freeradius only PAP

[Federico Capoano]

The password in the DB is hashed by Django (the framework on which OpenWISP
is based), for more info on this, see
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/topics/auth/passwords/.
We have no way to calculate a different hash, that would mean having to
store the password in clear text which we do not do, the other way would be
to change the hashing algorithm to be the same used by chap/mschap but
these algorithms are too weak nowadays.

At least this is the situation if you want to use the users defined in
OpenWISP, if you are storing passwords elsewhere you would need to
configure freeradius to look for passwords differently.

[openwisp] openwisp-radius & freeradius only PAP

[Tommaso Feola]

I'll start by saying that I'm new to openwisp: after reading various 
documentation and some help in chat, I managed to install Openwisp with the 
RADIUS module. I did several tests with radtest: the authorization only 
works if I use PAP. If I try to use chap or mschap , rest (using the 
freeradius -X command) reports that the password is empty. Can anyone give 
me a tip? Thank you
Tommaso
