I assume Windows provides facilities (likely many) which allow
authentication off of a LDAP-complaint directory service, such
as that provided by slapd(8).  Some may be more direct than others.
Anyways, see their site (and other MSWindows sites) for details.

That seems like a question for forums specific to MS Windows,
at least, that's where you should start such questions.
