You have basically three options:

  1. Use MSCHAP which needs NTLMv1. As per the thread you linked, it 
might be possible to do this if you patch Samba, even if you have 
disabled NTLMv1, using the magic flag noted in the thread.

  2. Use TTLS/PAP, and check passwords via Kerberos/LDAP bind.

  3. Use EAP-TLS and don't use passwords.
