The documentation advised against that.

Instead, you should find out which LDAP attribute stores your
MD5-password, add the correct mapping to ldap.attrmap, and leave
Auth-Type section commented-out.

It shouldn't affect the result though, since you don't have
cleartext-password stored in LDAP.

AFAIK that section refers to EAP-PEAP-MSCHAPv2, the most commonly-used EAP type.

See http://wiki.freeradius.org/Protocol%20Compatibility

regardless whether you use Auth-Type or not, you still will only be
able to use PAP, TTLS-PAP, or EAP-GTC as those are the ones that
provide user password in clear text.
