OpenID and LDAP

Many enterprises - include most I would guess that are Microsoft-centric - use LDAP to establish user identity and profiles.In the Web 2.0 world, the emerging standard is OpenID. Is there a way to use OpenID to provide logins within the Enterprise buthave it backed by LDAP, the obvious benefit being one could install off-the-shelf intranet tools inside one's organization butnot have to LDAP-enable them or create a parallel account system

The OpenID-LDAP Project (http://www.openid-ldap.org/) offers such a tool.
We're testing this on a Macintosh, but there seems to be no reason this won't work on any UNIX-y system.
