Danny is absolutely correct.  We authenticate everything via ldap.  I 
found it easy to write a sub that returns the ldap record as a hash, 
then from there it is a compare.  Do a google for "Net::LDAP examples"  
The examples you will find will be pretty much what you will need.  
There is nothing special to what you want to do.
