Is there a way to use Active Directory as a Login Provider?

I have OSQA configured on an Windows 2008 server hosted in IIS.
Our aimed usage of OSQA would be as an internal resource for company employees who all have domain windows login accounts.

Is there a way to use MS Active Directory as a Login Provider so that users can just use their current username and password?

I presume this is not an "out of the box" feature as I have seen nothing about it elsewhere.
One possibility would be to host a separate service which provides OpenID interface but uses MS Active Directory under the hood to do the authentication. Has anyone attempted to do this? Are there Any solutions out there that do this?
Are there any other ways to do this?

Thanks,
Rob
