LDAP and SecurityAssist

I'm building an intranet for our client using SecurityAssist, however they have insisted that it has to validate users through their existing database because they have a single signon for all internal services. Having searched the forums already for this, I found a post from a while ago which said it wasn't possible to use SecurityAssist with LDAP, however their techies have set up a test version of the intranet and replaced some of the Webassist code with their own. Unfortunately, although this allows a user to login, they've removed the session variables from the Login page which means that I can't continue with the build because I was going to use those session variables to set up user access groups, show different content etc.

As a last resort, I wanted to show you the code they've put in place and see if you think there's any way it can run alongside the standard Webassist code? I've attached a zip file containing four files - an original and updated login page, and an original and updated sample page. Can you let me know if there's any way this can work? (I'm not holding my breath!)

It looks like the new code would still save the session variables:
"SecurityAssist_StaffID", "FirstName", "LastName", and "Admin"

So you should still be able to create rules based on those.
