One approach here could be to trust the web server to provide the right
identity. One could then set up e.g. Apache to handle LDAP
authentication. Drawback is that you won't get a nice login page but the
browser popup instead. It looks like there are similar modules for CAS
and OpenID, but I have not used those.

At work we use authlogic which has some plugins for other authentication
methods, but in reality I find that each authentication framework needs
its own kind of hand-holding.

Kind regards,

Hans
