EAP-MD5 requires you have the plaintext password (in the LDAP server, in 
this case). If you do not, you cannot do EAP-MD5. If you do, configure 
the LDAP server to give the plaintext password to the radius server 
(usually in userPassword) and the radius server to map that into 
User-Password (done by default) and it will work.
