Problem: FreeRadius Authentication using LDAP

Hi,

I have configured FreeRadius to authenticate against LDAP. I have installed
and configured FreeRadius in FreeBSD Server and LDAP is already set up in
another server. I configured as below: (Changes on file are shown on bold
letter)

*/usr/local/etc/raddb/modules/ldap :*


ldap {
 
     # Define the LDAP server and the base domain name
 
     server = *"localhost"*     
basedn = *"dc=example,dc=com"*
 
     # Define which attribute from an LDAP "ldapsearch" query
     # is the password. Create a filter to extract the password
     # from the "ldapsearch" output
 
     password_attribute = "userPassword"
     filter = "(uid=%{Stripped-User-Name:-%{User-Name}})"
 
     # The following are RADIUS defaults
     start_tls = no
     dictionary_mapping = ${raddbdir}/ldap.attrmap
     ldap_connections_number = 5
     timeout = 4
     timelimit = 3
     net_timeout = 1
}


*/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default :*

authorize {
    ...
    ...
    #
    #  The ldap module will set Auth-Type to LDAP if it has not
    #  already been set
    Ldap
    ...
    ...
}


Auth-Type LDAP {
     ldap
}

 Also, same type of modifications has been done on :

*/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel*


Also, change has been made to users file adding LDAP user authentication.

But when I run radiusd -X command to run freeradius on debug mode, it gives
following error:

/usr/local/etc/raddb/modules/ldap[29]: Failed to link to module 'rlm_ldap':
file not found
/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel[237]: Failed to load module
"ldap".
/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel[237]: Failed to parse "ldap"
entry.


I don't know what to do? I would appreciate anyone's idea.

Should I need to configure anything if I have freeradius server on one
machine and LDAP server on another machine. They are not on same
machine/host.


Thanks
