Alan, Ivan,
   Thanks!  Between both of your comments, I was able to put two and 
two together and get both modules working.  I would never have 
guessed that one needs to create the groups in the passwd module.  It 
simply isn't intuitive to use the passwd  module for doing this.  One 
would think that each module (unix and ldap in my case) could work in 
tandem.  Any ways, it seem to be working with these two passwd modules:

passwd staff {
                 filename = /etc/raddb/unixusers
                 format = "*User-Name::::"
                 authtype = unix
         }
passwd students {
                 filename = /etc/raddb/ldapusers
                 format = "*User-Name::::"
                 authtype = ldap
         }

Thanks!
    Tim
