Authentication with ldap support

[Marco Miglietta]

Thank you Alan. I hope in a short time to become a little expert with 
freeradius while I try to solve daily problems.
I would to use freeradius for authentication and only  to verify user 
password with the one that is in external ldap that I bind.
Where have I to operate, what are the involved config files ?
Do you have any suggestions ?
Thank you v.m.

Marco.
