(I am working on this project with Derrick.) We have to use the Active
Directory to authenticate not only users from our client-side app (We're
attempting to use PostgreSQL essentially as a proxy authentication
mechanism), but also for connections to the SFTP server, and finally our
web app. Rather than doing three separate binding mechanisms, we wanted
to do the PAM/AD work once, and then have everything else defer to PAM
for authentication.
