Yhis probably isn't exactly what you are looking for, but it is a start.

The following will authenticate a regular WebDAV share against
ActiveDirectory using LDAP (you have to build apache with --enable-ldap
and --enable-auth-ldap). Replace the stuff in <> with whatever is
appropriate to your site.

However, when you toss svn into the mix, it fails - keeps asking for a
password. I didn't have the time or apache skillz to track down the
cause of the failure, but perhaps someone else on the list has the
secret sauce?
