Roberto, you don't have to remove EAP-TLS to support NTLM/MS-CHAPv2 
authentication. What you can do in eap.conf is specify which EAP type you want 
to use by default. If you prefer EAP-TLS, you can specify default_eap_type = 
tls. But if the client does not support that and asks for EAP-TTLS or PEAP 
instead, then, if your server is configured correctly, it can support those 
additional types too. 

For NTLM authentication, what you *do* need is to add your FreeRADIUS machine 
to the Windows 2012 domain. Since you're on a flavour of Unix/Linux, you need 
to install Samba on your Linux box and configure it to talk to the Windows 2012 
domain controller (via Kerberos).

You may want to read this page, which describes how we've made authentication 
against Active Directory work with PEAP (specifically PEAP with EAP-MSCHAPv2) 
and EAP-TTLS with EAP-MSCHAPv2:

http://confluence.diamond.ac.uk/display/PAAUTH/Using+Active+Directory+as+authentication+source

We don't use PEAP and don't have any test clients that support PEAP, but 
EAP-TTLS/EAP-MSCHAPv2 works splendidly (which is good enough for our purposes 
and is widely supported by Windows clients).

You can use rad_eap_test (there is information about this on the link above, 
including how to build the binary) to specify which EAP method you want to use 
and then which inner authentication to use (where applicable). So you can leave 
your existing setup (I assume default_eap_type is 'tls') alone and still test 
your NTLM authencation. 

Folks, feel free to correct... but that's what worked here.
