This is the way we do it.

Then everything is driven out of LDAP (eDirectory, but AD should work just
the same) without extending the schema.

And then to do the "security" you use the postauth_users to say which LDAP
group you need to be to allow you to access which Hostgroup and get what
attributes in the Access-Accept response.  With the last line in the
postauth_users being "access-reject" since it hadn't matched any of the
groups beforehand.

Easy!
