I'm developing some small php applications for an intranet at a local business. They are a windows shop but not opposed to using open source for the intranet. However, they want users to be authenticated by their group membership in active directory (management to the management pages) and so on. I've done quite a bit of research on it and how unix can authenticate with Active directory but nothing that really fits what I need has appeared to me. I've seen some things that use an IIS server as a sort of proxy to authenticate the users and send information back to the apache server but I was hoping to do it all within the linux box. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with doing this sort of thing?<BR>

Thanks,<BR>
