[pptp-server] PAM And MSCHAP

I have a very similar requirement should anyone have any feedback.

I currently have a PPTP server in development that  I am using PAP
authentication for (passed through to a pam RADIUS) module. This is to
facilitate the use of token authentication. This works fine.

I do however want to encrypt the tunnel, but seem unable to do this without
chap authentication (which breaks the pam RADIUS).

Thanks in advance.
