We've used NDS for NT and basic authentication. That works pretty well because the NDS
users get replicated as NT users. Easy to set up too.
With CF 4.5's enhancements to <cfheader>, you can really use any data source to do
basic authentication. We're also looking into using Novell's ODBC driver for NDS and
there's also an ActiveX control that might work. Note: ODBC and ActiveX are not
supported with CF by Novell (translation: "If it works, great, but if it doesn't,
tough.").
There are also some JAVA classes from Novell that are supposed to work with the NDS.
You might be able to use them (potentially from a cfx) to create other authentication
schemes.
Fun fun fun!
