Recently I worked with CAS from Jasig, you can also check OpenSSO or Josso to have a SSO. From there, you'll find the documentation of each project and how to integrate it in your application.

For the automatic connection "as long as your logged on the computer", I'm not sure that's even possible. If it is you'll certainly need a specific browser (and some plugins for this browser).

If you want to "automatically" extract the user's Windows credentials, one option (maybe the only one?) is NTLM. Once you've actually got the credentials, you'll need to check them against the authoritative source - Active Directory exposes details as LDAP, so most security frameworks would be able to cope with this.

I've done such a thing a few years ago with Spring Security, including deriving privileges based on Windows group membership, and it worked very well.

Is the authentication centralized anywhere (LDAP, for example)?
