PPP authentication brute-force attack?

Does anybody know a tool to perform brute force or dictionary attacks against a PPP (PAP and/or CHAP) authentication server? Yes, I'm very familiar with Hydra, but neither it nor Medusa have support for PPP. I know that such a tool would actually call pppd to perform the attack. So, I even tried to write a shell script to read passwords from a file and call pppd for each one, but as I'm a very bad programmer I could not make nothing useful :( In my case, I'm trying to audit an PPPoE PAP server. _________________________________________________________________ Connect and share in new ways with Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com/share.html?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_sharelife_012008 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This list is sponsored by: Cenzic Need to secure your web apps NOW?
