NTLM Authentication module uses a simple LDAP connection to Windows Active Directory for further authentication. This is still in development and not to be used in production environment. The module is aimed at those who want LDAP Authentication with the option of NTLM, but also require something easier and simple to use that will work with Windows Domain Controllers.
The module is based upon the ideas from the 'LDAP integration' module http://drupal.org/project/ldap_integration so it has the same interface form as the LDAP server setup pages, it has less features but is far more lightweight in comparison. This LDAP module is designed to work with Windows Active Directory and has only been tested in an Active Directory environment using Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller & IIS6 only. This has not been tested using Apache or any other web server technology.
Some small stability fixes have been made:
When a user has missing ldap information, white screen normally appears.
This has been resolved by removing the lookup if information is missing.
Some code improvements and optimisation has been done & improved documentation.
New Features:
Group and Roles association feature has been introduced.
This is a beta feature which has not been tested. I can not claim it to be stable or work as intended.
When installing the module, once enabled do not do anything else until you have configured the LDAP lookup settings otherwise you can end up locking yourself out of the site. Once you can login using a user from an LDAP lookup, then you can enable NTLM. By default NTLM authentication is disabled, to enable this you must go into the administration panel and enable this feature.
