I'm working on an internet application that stores our users' login info,
groups, and privileges in a sql database.

Today, my boss asked me why don't I store the login info, groups and
privileges in the our Active Directory. I find that question a bit
strange, because I think Active Directory is for internal network users,
and not for external users of your web site.

Do you know of any internet application that stores its external users in
the Active Directory? Thanks.
