Hello

Thank you but this is not the objective and this is the reason for 
needing the "fake".
Access to Kerberos or NTLM ports of the AD, is not possible. An LDAP 
server would be present with accounts replication.
The idea is to do a silent authentication without joining the AD
We did not need the double user/password credential, only the user sent 
by the browser is required

If the user has an Active Directory session then his account is 
automatically sent without him having to take any action.
If the user is in a workgroup then the account sent will not be in the 
LDAP database and will be rejected.
I don't need to argue about the security value of this method. It saves 
us from setting up a gas factory to make a kind of HotSpot
