That's *not* an MD5 encrypted password. That's an MD5 hash, and it cannot be
used as a password. If you don't have ENCRYPT(), you will have to
generate MD5 encrypted passwords (not hashes!) on a nearby Unix machine and
copy them to your win32 box.

Beside this, notice that, according to the following message:

> Jul 24 15:11:27 Auth.notice: (AUTHREQ local 17 md5): Login incorrect
> [md5/{chap-password}], CLID unknown.

the user was trying to authenticate using CHAP, and CHAP can *only* be
used with plaintext passwords.
