[Mono-list] Need to query Active Directory groups from linux

[neiby]

forgive the totally newb question. Even though I'm not qualified to do so,
I'm trying to help someone figure out a way to query active directory group
membership information from linux. During a discussion we had, someone else
mentioned Mono as a possible solution since it might allow them to write a
.NET tool to do the query, but do it directly from a linux box.

Here's the issue. This linux box is running an application that needs to
watch IP addresses going through it, query AD to find out what user owns
that IP address (that part already works), and then query AD to see what
groups that user is  member of. Depending on the answer, various internet
access rules will be applied to that traffic. 

Would Mono be one possible solution to that problem?

Many thanks!
