Thanks for the feedback. At the moment the only Sharepoint features I'm trying to implement in APEX are automatic authentication and presence icons. I've written a function in Oracle to authenticate users against Active Directory so they can log into my apps with their network credentials instead of having to maintain separate accounts, but they still have to type their username/password every time. They want the apps to just know who's logged into the computer like Sharepoint does. I found a method to get the OS user with some javascript and an ActiveX control, but it requires the user to grant permission to run the control every time. Whatever Sharepoint is doing to get the user doesn't do this. I was hoping to use SPGetCurrentUser in the APEX login page to let Sharepoint handle that part.
I've tried the method in the link for displaying presence icons, but haven't been able to get it to work yet. It says it's for Sharepoint 2007. We're on 2010. I don't know if this is the reason or not.
As for getting the admins to do anything, the probability of that happening is so low it's not even worth asking.
