Ok, I've already made one bad assumption/misread in this thread, so why
stop there...
How about this: http://wiki.mozilla.org/LDAP_C_SDK_SASL_Windows
Can GNU SASL be used instead? : http://www.gnu.org/software/gsasl/
Win32 pre-built:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=145682&package_id=211655
I'm fairly ignorant on SASL, but it does seem quite ironic that
it is harder to authenticate against windows on windows than it is
on authenticate against windows on unix...
