My first attempt was using a pam smb module, and an apache pam module. This worked well, but had a couple of flaws:
* You could only have one /etc/pam.d/ file for apache, so if you wanted different styles of authentication you are out of luck. doh.
* the pam smb module doesn't support groups, so I couldn't have an area just for Teachers only.
-Oh well, scraped
that idea.

I looked at the smb modules for apache. This was a port of the pam_smb module to the apache api, didn't really gain me much, except it removed the limitation on one /etc/pam.d/ file for apache. Not that this really was much of a problem if you didn't have group support.
my final approach to the problem was an ldap authentication module for apache. This hit the nail on the head.
