The only plugin I'm aware of for working with ActiveDirectory is 
DirectoryAuthPlugin, Last I checked it was completely broken; including a 
lot of really basic problems like incorrect imports, typos in the DB schema 
and string formatting when preparing SQL statements. As far as I can tell 
the author isn't developing it anymore, except that one time he decided to 
revert some of the really basic fixes I put in place.

You probably want to review the current list of issues:
http://trac-hacks.org/report/9?sort=ticket&asc=1&COMPONENT=DirectoryAuthPlugin
and then maybe fork the plugin to fix the things that need fixing.

There are a number of Ldap plugins. I'm not sure which, if any, are being 
maintained these days:

Let us know if you have any success.
