The BeOS supports PPP authentication via PAP and via a more traditional Unix-style authentication. It does not support CHAP in the Preview Release 2 or in the forthcoming Release 3. We hope to add it in the future, but we don't have a schedule for it yet.

Does the BeOS support TCP/IP connections over PPP?

How easy is it to add other networking protocols than TCP/IP?
