Ahem. It's up to you how you choose to respond to users. Does it make more sense to see why people who make good faith efforts to follow your documentation are having problems and improve the product? Or should you make negative assumptions, and blame and castigate them for their efforts to follow installation instructions?

On this new install of freeradius I used the ldap config suggested by this page: http://wiki.freeradius.org/modules/rlm_ldap
That's for version 2. I'll edit it to make that more clear.
But in general, it's *really* not a good idea to just blow away the entire configuration, and replace it with an example from the documentation.
The point of the example configuration file is for you to *read it*, and make *minor changes*. See "man radiusd" for instructions.
Destroying the configuration is just... unhelpful.
Note that on this page, as in my prior config, the listed entry for filter is *filter = "(uid=%{%{Stripped-User-Name}:**-%{User-Name}})"*
And that's what you should have used. It should also be a hint that running the *default* configuration works, and running a *butchered* configuration doesn't work.
There seem to be some problems with this page, and some general gaps in documentation for enabling modules.. for example this search returns no results. http://wiki.freeradius.org/search?q=enable+module
Feel free to make suggestions.
But if you read raddb/mods-available/README.rst, you'll see that this *is* documented.
The main problem with most of the documentation is that people look everywhere else... but not where the documentation is located.
