ldap passwords?

[Tim Tyler <tyler@beloit.edu>]

 Freeradius experts,
 I am trying to configure freeradius to use openldap as a backend
for authentication, but I can't seem to get the passwords to
authenticate.  It seems to have no problem binding and finding the
username (uid). I am using crypt passwords in the ldap userPassword
field:
userPassword::
e1NTSEF9aXBWQklEYnZYSU9RdWl2V0ZtdGR5MWxIWFFsZWVCMjQ=

  I am not using any radius attributes.  I simply want to allow
any uid to authenticate.  I get these results:
  
rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 144.89.40.8:59881, id=60,
length=59
        User-Name =
"tylertj"
        User-Password =
"xxxxxx"
        NAS-IP-Address =
255.255.255.255
        NAS-Port = 1812

  What might I be doing wrong?  I presume that the ldap server
doesn't  have to store the passwords in plain text, correct?  I
can store them in md5 or SHA1 hash if I want, correct?  I did
uncomment:

authenticate
{           
   Auth-Type LDAP {
      ldap
   }

  Am I wrong to think this is now a password issue?
