I guess a better to put it this is there a way I can authenticate against an
ActiveDirectory using LDAP via LDAP's credentials vs using Microsoft's
credentials.

For example, if I am running some LDAP server under Linux and I want to
authenticate against it, I would need to include some sort of credentials
(ones that have nothing to do with ActiveDirectory).

Since ActiveDirectory supports LDAP, can this be done under a Windows
environment? Since in other words, what would have to happen to allow me to
authenticate against ACtiveDirectory? I would have to open up all these
ports and then expose my domain publicly to the Internet (vs. just having an
LDAP interface exposed)?

Thanks,
