If you are just doing a bind to the ldap server for authentication, then, I think openldap is working on a password policy overlay that might get you what you want. I believe its only working on non-production versions right now. Not positive about that, but I remember a similar question to this in their mailing list. You may want to post your question to the openldap mailling list or search the archives of it. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
