It does not look to be simple because the whole PAP and CHAP authentication are processed by PapInput() and ChapInput() that call RadiusPAPAuthenticate() and RadiusCHAPAuthenticate(). It is a synchronous call. In order to use rad_init_send_request() and rad_continue_send_request(), PapInput() and ChapInput() need to be splitted, doesn't they ?
