Check out the Fedora Directory Server. http://directory.fedoraproject.org/

Depending on details, you might find assistance with these two lists: http://www.openldap.org/lists/mm/listinfo/openldap-software http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/cyrus-sasl If you're wanting to authenticate based on username/password (as apposed to client Kerberos credentials), include 'saslauthd' in your search.

Can anyone help me or point me to somewhere I can get assistance? I have tried one consulting firm and that was a stellar failure.

I've tried many different searches but a search for 'active directory, openldap, authentication, proxy, pass-through' either gives information for Squid or all go back to the same OpenLDAP Administrators guide from which I am missing something.
