I have multiple systems with all of them authenticating against Active Directory. I have Drupal setup so that it too authenticates against AD. I would have Drupal be the "gateway", so users could log into Drupal and then be presented with a list of links. When the user clicks on the link, it would pass the credentials to that system, so they could automatically be logged in. The issue i'm having is, how would I get the user's password to do something like this?

I'm not clear on how this relates to Authcache. Did you post this is the wrong issue queue?

You'll need to capture the user's password on login and save it in $_SESSION. You could create a hidden form that then POSTs the username/password to the applications login page. Or look at the application's API and see if there is a way to create a login session.

That's all I'm going to help on this, since this is the wrong issue queue. Try the Drupal forums if you need more help.
