  Because Active Directory isn't LDAP in the same way that other LDAP
servers are LDAP.

  You can't get NT-Passwords from AD, you can get it from other LDAP
servers.  Therefore, you can't get FreeRADIUS to compare a known good
password to the password in the Access-Request, you've got to use
something else.

  In this case, NT domain authentication does MS-CHAP, so FreeRADIUS
can use ntlm_auth to do MS-CHAP to the NT domain, and thus
authenticate the user.
