Windows Authentication Help

I'm running Foswiki 1.0.8 on Windows 2003, Apache 2.2 with Strawberry Perl. I'm trying to get foswiki to authenticate users based on there Windows Authentication and would like to use SSPI to do it. I already have mod_auth_sspi installed but I can't seem to get it to work with foswiki.

Is there an easy way to get it so that each time a user logs in to foswiki with a login it can check the windows server (via SSPI) to see if it's there? Then possibly using the NewUserPlugin ?

Take a look at: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/ModAuthSSPICookbook

Its surprising that there seems to be no documentation about this in Foswiki; I'll create one shortly.

Thanks a lot! I'll give it a try, will it be pretty easy to just plugin the NewUserPlugin?
