The way I would do it (and will really soon for a project) is to have apache handle the authentication of the user if the URL is something like /wa/login.
You could use the ntlm module for apache.
Actually, since I never done in WO, that leads me to question how I would retrieve the REMOTE_USER from the apache request?
(Since windows domains are really kerberos, you could also use kerberos authentication, you would need a HTTP/hostname principal created on the windows kerberos server. There are mails about in on the archives)
