It's obvious from your debug output that
- your LDAP module isn't setting Auth-Type for some reason
- your LDAP server isn't returning any sort of password (plain or
crypted)
and therefore you probably need to try and do that horrible hack
of binding to the LDAP server to auth. Really, Alan is right -
LDAP is not an authentication server, even though lots of people
seem to think it is.
Hence the suggestion to "fix" your problem by setting Auth-Type,
iff it has not already been set, when not doing EAP and
User-Password is supplied.
The best solution is to fixup your LDAP server to return the
crypted password back to FreeRADIUS. Like already pointed out, if
it's AD, this isn't likely to happen.
