I'm not an AD expert, but they say ( http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/distrib/... ) that AD is accessible using the LDAPv3 protocol; so it should be possible to use it like any other LDAP server.
Can I set up freeradius to authenticate with ldaps and be secure?
What do you mean with "to be secure" ? Do you mean the connection between the radius server and the AD ? Are you familiar with the SCHEMAs used in AD (I'm not, by the way) ? Have you already planned the access rules that you will need on the AD to complete the authentication/authorization procedure ? (These are questions intented for yourself, in the first place).
The ldap would be Microsoft and is on my domain controller. I have websites using the ldap process but OR do I have to do that samba thing?
First of all, I think that you should take a moment to put down the architecture that you're working with (just to have a complete picture), your goals and the expertise that is available to you and/or your collegues/organization. Then, you can start planning your setup.
