  LDAP is a database.  FreeRADIUS is an authentication server.

  Configure the two so that FreeRADIUS can get the "known good" password
from LDAP.  FreeRADIUS will take care of the rest.

  Yes, it is that easy.  Most of the frustrations and delays that people
run into are (a) Active Directory, and (b) they try to use LDAP as an
authentication server.
