Hello,

Yes, the info was right. But _still_, your chances are very good that you can 
use LDAP: your LDAP server needs to store the user passwords in clear text 
and allow your LDAP admin user to retrieve them. This is a common scheme in 
most LDAP instances, the notable exception being ActiveDirectory. But even 
with ActiveDirectory you could do PEAP, it would just be a little m,ore 
complicated than I outlined below (ntlm_auth, as the text you quoted 
suggested).

Greetings,
