I think that this would all depend on the language you are working with,
particulary when creating the log-in interface. One of the most elegant
solutions I have seen is to create a stand-alone COM component to interface
with the LDAP server. Its quite simple really, take in the userID and
password and return a negation or access rights - one of the easiest COM
components you'll ever write! Making it a COM component can then let you
work with it in a variety of languages.
Just my two cents,
Dennis
