Currently, I'm working through the painful process of configuring
Authentication via MS Active Directory, but I have a question about
Trac logins in general.

Is there anyway to automatically log someone into a project provided
they are allowed to see it in the first place?

>From what I can tell so far, following the instructions in the
TracGuide will still require the user to do the following to login to
trac project:

* Click on the Login link
* Enter their username/password

Now, I realize they can save this information in the browser of their
choice and they will be automatically logged in while the username/
password combo remains valid.  However, we require that users change
their windows/network passwords every 30 days. This would mean they
would be prompted to re-enter their credentials the next time they
went into Trac.  That would annoy me.

Is there anyway to have Trac work in the following manner:

* Go to your Trac project site
* Be authenticated via Apache/LDAP
* If you are authorized to see the project, you are logged in

No need to pop up and ask for a password.

That's ultimately how I would like my implementation of Trac to work -
I just need to know if there's something extra I need - a plugin or
whatever.

Thanks
