In the RFCs, CHAP is expanded as...
RFC 1334
Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol
In the pppd man page, CHAP is expanded as...
+chap Require the peer to authenticate itself using CHAP
[Cryptographic Handshake Authentication Protocol]
authentication.
Which is correct? If the man page is wrong, please change it.
