You're planning to write Ruby code, and then compile it (somehow) into an
exe file, and you're doing this in order to get portability. Ok, I'll assume
you know what you're doing.

If you want Net::LDAP to bind to A/D using an identity recovered from its
runtime environment (presumably by using SASL/GSSAPI), that's not currently
supported, although this is the second request for it that I've had in a
week.

I don't see how submitting creds to the w2k3 task scheduler is any more
secure than storing them in a file (apart from Microsoft saying it is).
