Bind to Novells LDAP using current login token

Hello,

Here is my situation. I have developed several apps that require
authentication to access. For authentication, I have the users enter thier
user/pass and click login, which is then sent to an LDAP Server (NOVELL) - if
binding is successful, I use the login object to retrieve various
fields/attributes of the LDAP directory for that user.

This works just fine, but what I want to do is transparently log the user in
- so they do not have to provide thier credentials. All of the users have the
Novell Client installed and log in in the morning.

Is there a way to do this like you would if I was getting the windows
account via DllImport and the user32.dll - or any other way to take the users
current credentials and bind them to LDAP for authentication purposes, etc.?
I suppose much of this will depend on if NOVELL's classes will allow a login
token to be passed as opposed to supplying both the user/pass.

Any help would be appreciated.
