Freeradius and OpenLDAP authentication with hashed passwords

Hi all,

I've managed to setup FreeRadius with OpenLDAP. The passwords however, 
are hashed (e.g. "{SHA}....") in LDAP. Authenticating directly to LDAP 
works, but it failed with Freeradius. If the  password is in plain-text, 
authentication is successful. Question:

What are the setting in FR that I need to do in order for the 
authentication to work? - i.e. FR takes the plain-text password, hash 
it, then compared it with the one in LDAP.

freeradius-2.0.1
openldap-2.3.41


Regards,
