Authenticating Restricted Users through LDAP

Hi All,

I have a setup of Freeradius 1.1.4 running with openldap 2.2.13. The 
radius server authenticates clients based on Username and Password that 
clients provide through a web page. This is working fine. Now I want 
that restricted users in LDAP can be authenticated, but I cannot make a 
separated OU for those users, since there are other applications being 
served by this LDAP.

Is there a way that I can set an attribute like "radiusAccess" in LDAP, 
and Radius Server will check from LDAP that if radiusAccess attribute is 
set to 1 AND Username and Passwords match, then it shoud give the 
access. For users whose radiusAccess attribute is not set, access should 
not be given even if Username and Password are correct.

In the current scenario, I am not using any radius Schema or any other 
attribute specific to Radius.

Thanks and Regards,
Sankalp
