I just built a Rails app to replace a crotchety old .NET tool (original coding time: spread out over months; Rails: 5-6 hours!). The tool has both public and protected access needs, with the internal users being part of an Active Directory network. I always use authlogic for my authentication needs, but had never needed to deal with AD before. I didn't want to piece together a hack of Apache, mod_ldap, and authlogic's basic auth support, since that just muddies the cleanliness of an otherwise very simple design!
