Hello I think I know what the problem is. The radius server is looking up using cleartext password , while the LDAP data base stores the hashed passwords. How can I force the radiuse server to search for the password as a hashed value (rather than searching for the clear-text value) ?

Hello Alan I made sure this time that rlm_ldap was compiled. Now the following is the configuration
------/etc/raddb/modules/ldap-----------
ldap ldap1 { server = "a.b.c.d" ... }
ldap ldap2 { server = "w.x.y.z" ... }
-----/etc/raddb/radiusd.conf-----
authorize { ldap1
ldap2
}
authenticate { ldap1 ldap2 }
------------------------------------
When I execute /sbin/radiusd -X
It shows instantiating module ldap1 and module ldap2
.... Module: Instantiating ldap2 ldap ldap1 { server = "a.b.c.d" port = 389 .... Module: Instantiating ldap2 ldap ldap2 { server = "w.x.y.z" port = 389 ....
When sending a radtest request using the following command (from the same machine as one which is running the server)
$ radtest user "secret" localhost 2 testing123
I get ACCESS-REJECT reply from the sever.
On the server the logs show something like this --------------------------------------------------- It shows binding to both LDAP servers one by one through something like this :

You can see it is attempting to search both databases but fails. If I use a simple telnet or ssh to authenticate against the LDAP server it logs in fine. LDAP client login against the LDAP server is otherwise working fine. I know I have been bothering using trivial question. But any help would be appreciated :-)
Thanks in advance. Sambuddho

This is exactly what I did . I forgot to put the separate module names
The consistent problems you see make me think that the issue is more than "forgot".
And now when I try to start the server this is what the error I see :
server { modules { Module: Checking authenticate {...} for more modules to load //etc/raddb/modules/ldap1[29]: Failed to link to module 'rlm_ldap':
So.... was that module built? Apparently not...
When trying with a single server ,it matches the radius request against rlm_pap and not rlm_ldap. I am confused.
Perhaps reading the debug output (and that of "configure" and "make") would help.
