Chris, thank you for the information.  Focusing on Active Directory, I reviewed 
the info at the following site: 
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc961766.aspx

Based on this, I need to find a module that implements the LDAP APIs.  By 
default, it does not appear that Python can speak this language, I am using 
version 2.6.1.  The module I found is Python-LDAP (http://www.python-ldap.org/).

Does anyone have experience using this?
