Microsoft Active Directory or LDAP, they aren't exactly the same thing.

In JBoss there is an LDAP LoginModule that you can configure. JBoss does not come with one for Active Directory, but I am positive you could Google for it and someone has already written a Custom LoginModule to communicate with Active Directory. In the JBoss documentation you will find a great example of how to configure an LDAP LoginModule.


Good Luck

Mark

Obvious book plug: JBoss in Action (see link below) goes into great detail (in chapter 4) on configuring an LDAP login module. The example used in the book is based on a simple Active Directory configuration (running on Windows 2003) and it outlines the steps you would need to go through to decipher what information you need from Active Directory to place into the LDAP login module configuration.
