:Why not RADIUS?  It doesn't get much cheaper than free.  But 
:yes, you are able to use Active Dir to authenticate.  See PEAP

:Hi,
:
:We have got 10 Cisco Aironet Access Points . However we donot 
:have a AAA solution like Cisco ACS.
:
:But we would like to authenticate wireless LAN users via 
:Active directory database before they can connect. Is it 
:possible without a AAA solution?  Are there any drastic 
:implications if we do this .
:
:Cisco ACS is expensive ...hence we donot want to buy unless it 
:is mandatory!
