Installed FreeRadius 2.1.8 to authenticate to an LDAP back end (eDirectory)

Set it up per the document link below:

http://www.novell.com/communities/node/11321/freeradius-218-edirectory-integration

Now I'm getting a No authenticate method error.  Output of radiusd -X below:

In the Novell Cool Solution link, they say to un-comment "ldap" in the
authorize section of /etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel but I had a
question on this.  Attached is my inner-tunnel config.  My question is do I
also need to un-comment the following in the authenticate section or am I
missing something else entirely?

#Auth-Type LDAP {

#  Authorization. First preprocess (hints and huntgroups files),
#  then realms, and finally look in the "users" file.
#
#  The order of the realm modules will determine the order that
#  we try to find a matching realm.

#  need to setup hints for the remote radius server
authorize {
	#
	#  The chap module will set 'Auth-Type := CHAP' if we are
	#  handling a CHAP request and Auth-Type has not already been set

	#
	#  If the users are logging in with an MS-CHAP-Challenge
	#  attribute for authentication, the mschap module will find
	#  the MS-CHAP-Challenge attribute, and add 'Auth-Type := MS-CHAP'
	#  to the request, which will cause the server to then use
	#  the mschap module for authentication.
	mschap

	#
	#  Pull crypt'd passwords from /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow,
	#  using the system API's to get the password.  If you want
	#  to read /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow directly, see the
	#  passwd module, above.

	unix

	#
	#  Look for IPASS style 'realm/', and if not found, look for
	#  '@realm', and decide whether or not to proxy, based on
	#  that.

	#
	#  If you are using multiple kinds of realms, you probably
	#  want to set "ignore_null = yes" for all of them.
	#  Otherwise, when the first style of realm doesn't match,
	#  the other styles won't be checked.
	#
	#  Note that proxying the inner tunnel authentication means
	#  that the user MAY use one identity in the outer session
	#  (e.g. "anonymous", and a different one here
	#  (e.g. "user at example.com").  The inner session will then be
	#  proxied elsewhere for authentication.  If you are not
	#  careful, this means that the user can cause you to forward
	#  the authentication to another RADIUS server, and have the
	#  accounting logs *not* sent to the other server.  This makes
	#  it difficult to bill people for their network activity.
	#
	suffix
#	ntdomain

	#
	#  The "suffix" module takes care of stripping the domain
	#  (e.g. "@example.com") from the User-Name attribute, and the

	#  If you want the inner tunnel request to be proxied, delete

	#  This module takes care of EAP-MSCHAPv2 authentication.

	#  It also sets the EAP-Type attribute in the request
	#  attribute list to the EAP type from the packet.
	#
	#  The example below uses module failover to avoid querying all
	#  of the following modules if the EAP module returns "ok".
	#  Therefore, your LDAP and/or SQL servers will not be queried
	#  for the many packets that go back and forth to set up TTLS
	#  or PEAP.  The load on those servers will therefore be reduced.

	#  mschap authentication, the un-comment this line, and

	#  If no other module has claimed responsibility for

	#  other modules listed above to add a "known good" password
	#  to the request, and to do nothing else.  The PAP module
	#  will then see that password, and use it to do PAP
	#  authentication.
	#
	#  This module should be listed last, so that the other modules

#  Authentication.
#
#
#  This section lists which modules are available for authentication.
#  Note that it does NOT mean 'try each module in order'.  It means
#  that a module from the 'authorize' section adds a configuration
#  attribute 'Auth-Type := FOO'.  That authentication type is then
#  used to pick the apropriate module from the list below.
#

#  In general, you SHOULD NOT set the Auth-Type attribute.  The server
#  will figure it out on its own, and will do the right thing.  The
#  most common side effect of erroneously setting the Auth-Type
#  attribute is that one authentication method will work, but the
#  others will not.
#
#  The common reasons to set the Auth-Type attribute by hand
#  is to either forcibly reject the user, or forcibly accept him.

	#
	#  The example policy below updates the outer tunnel reply
	#  (usually Access-Accept) with the User-Name from the inner
	#  tunnel User-Name.  Since this section is processed in the
	#  context of the inner tunnel, "request" here means "inner
	#  tunnel request", and "outer.reply" means "outer tunnel
	#  reply attributes".
	#
	#  This example is most useful when the outer session contains
	#  a User-Name of "anonymous at ....", or a MAC address.  If it
	#  is enabled, the NAS SHOULD use the inner tunnel User-Name
	#  in subsequent accounting packets.  This makes it easier to
	#  track user sessions, as they will all be based on the real
	#  name, and not on "anonymous".
	#
	#  The problem with doing this is that it ALSO exposes the
	#  real user name to any intermediate proxies.  People use
	#  "anonymous" identifiers outside of the tunnel for a very
	#  good reason: it gives them more privacy.  Setting the reply
	#  to contain the real user name removes ALL privacy from
	#  their session.
	#
	#  If you want privacy to remain, see the
	#  Chargeable-User-Identity attribute from RFC 4372.  In order
	#  to use that attribute, you will have to allocate a
	#  per-session identifier for the user, and store it in a
	#  long-term database (e.g. SQL).  You should also use that
	#  attribute INSTEAD of the configuration below.

	#update outer.reply {
	#	User-Name = "%{request:User-Name}"

#  When the server decides to proxy a request to a home server,

	#  be logged to a local "detail" file, for processing with
	#  radrelay.  When the home server comes back up, radrelay
