I have been reading and looking at similar post non-stop and have an idea what is wrong, but am not sure how to fix it.

Sorry... but the symptoms here are clear. Many, many, posts, full of confused "what do I do now" questions. It's not that hard. Stop fighting it, and simplify it instead.

Not sure if that helps identify the changes I need to make???

Configure a user in LDAP. Ensure that the LDAP database has their *plain text* password. Check that "ldapsearch" returns the *plain text* password. Install FreeRADIUS, using the *default configuration*. Configure FreeRADIUS to point to the LDAP server. Try PAP authentication. It *will* work. Alan DeKok.
