This looks like the way to go, I don't like the username /pass stored in plain text but maybe if I create a special group that doesn't really have any privileges this would work, geez AD is just plain bad...lol, Thanks.

I've had decent luck with LDAP authentication for Apache. AD does not support anonymous LDAP searches so you have to have a user account that has the ability to search AD. Here's a modified sample config (.htaccess or httpd.conf) that includes security group membership checks. This would require that a user login with their Windows domain username and password and that the user be a member of the AD security group 'managers':

AuthType              basic
AuthName              "Windows Domain Credentials - Managers Only"
AuthzLDAPMethod       ldap
AuthzLDAPServer       "dc1.example.com"
AuthzLDAPBindDN       "CN=username,CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com"
AuthzLDAPBindPassword "superSecretPassword"
AuthzLDAPUserBase     "CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com"
AuthzLDAPUserKey      sAMAccountName
AuthzLDAPUserScope    subtree
AuthzLDAPGroupBase    "CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com"
AuthzLDAPGroupKey     cn
AuthzLDAPGroupScope   subtree
AuthzLDAPMemberKey    member
AuthzLDAPSetGroupAuth ldapdn
require group         managers

I looked over an most of which I have already done, the last piece that I am trying to address is how to do authentication with Apache against active directory, mod_auth_pam is one way but I have not had any luck getting it to compile with the latest Apache....Thanks
