when using captive portal, all requests will come from one single
NAS or client-IP address - that of the captive portal. simply add
in an authenication type and call for that client...eg rough example

DEFAULT Client-IP-Address == 1.2.3.4 Autz-Type := CAPTIVE

than in the authorize section

        Autz-Type CAPTIVE {
        ldap
        }

...and remove that ldap that you put back into the main section.

this info isnt 100% complete - but should get your mind down the right track.
