web app authentication

I have a scenario where I have a web application hosted externally (ie: the webserver is not a member of my internal active directory domain).

I would like to authenticate users of the web app using their active directory credentials.

Is there a product or some setup I can use to accomplish this?

Generally this is achieved by authenticating to the AD server with LDAP. I'd recommend using LDAP+SSL to keep the passwords from going out in plaintext, and other than that you should be fine - as long as there aren't any firewalls in the way.
