LDAP does provide some authentication -- through the 'BIND' statement. Incidentally, this is how the FreeRadius rlm_ldap module chooses to authenticate against an LDAP entry... it attempts to 'bind' to it, passing the username and password to LDAP.

I have successfully integrated FreeRadius & LDAP -- I can get you my config entries if you would like. It worked with OpenLDAP practically out-of-the-box.

I have a write-up on FreeRADIUS and LDAP. It should apply to most configurations http://vuksan.com/linux/dot1x/802-1x-LDAP.html
