there should be a mention of MS-CHAPv2's fatal security flaws, namely the padding of the DES key with 16 bits of zeros which effectively makes brute forcing dictionary attacks faster by at least 5 orders of magnitude...this attack is discussed in the LEAP article so it should probably be mentioned here --Michael Lynn 00:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I suggest we redirect 'MSCHAP' to this page. (I don't know how to do it). 132.206.197.155 21:03, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
