Try to have a look at: http://code.google.com/p/s-o-l/source/browse/trunk/settings_prod_change.py
I have a login page but authenticate against AD server and if authenticated I store in a database; you may have to customize according to your needs. If you are on windows, I recommend to use AD explorer (http:// technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963907.aspx). That will help you browse through your AD server (to understand all the various parameters that you talked about). You would need the support of the network support personnel (if you are not one already, which was the case with me) as you would need a email id in the AD server which has access to the root of the tree (depending on your requirement it might be the top most node; or it could be any other node as well).
