I think you will have to write a PreAuthHook to decode the password and store
it in a pseudo-attribute in the packet for later use by your AuthBy SQL. There
are some example hooks in the patches area that will help you:

You will need to use the "decode_password" routine in Radius.pm. Note that this
will only work with PAP requests from your NAS(s) as it is impossible to
decrypt CHAP passwords.
