Microsoft Challange Host Au-
thentication Protocol v2
Fortunately pppd can be patched to support Microsoft's version of the
CHAP method, often referred to as MS-CHAPv2. This version of CHAP
uses challenge keys that can be derived from an `Windows NT' hash of
the user's password as would be found in the sambaAccount user object
managed by a Samba PDC.
Acquire and install a LDAP enabled version of pppd, such as that

Most versions of pppd patches to support MS-CHAPv3 also support
MPPE which provides an additional layer of security by encrypting the
traffic itself as it transverses the network. In order to use MPPE both the
client's and server's version of pppd must support the protocol.
