Speaking for myself.. in most large 'projects' with goals like this we
ended up with a database backend that was the feed to the LDAP and
other 'authentication/authorization' servers. The web-app was the feed
into the database, and the LDAP/Radius/Kerberos/whatever was the
frontends.
In our talkings with #ldap and #fedora-ds people I ran into a couple of
people doing something similar. I hate to admit this publically but in a
former life I did a lot of stuff with FreeRadius. had custom plugins and
even a MSSQL backend for it (yikes). There are options available here
though we'll probably stick with a version similar to what we're doing now
but a bit saner, no race conditions and hopefully pulling right from the
webapp instead of generating then pulling.
