tracking users in asp.net

We are currently building an application which will have users login and be tracked as they surf the site. I've looked into ASP.Net Membership but rather than use a username/password which the user or admin will have to setup, we've been asked to validate users against LDAP. Currently we are using Sessions, so once a user is validated in LDAP we allow them into the site and save information into a Session variable, which is then checked in the Master page to make sure it exists on all pages, if not the user is bounced to login.Is this a common approach, ok to do? Or is there a way using Forms Authentication and Membership to validate against LDAP rather than the SQL tables. So we can only use Membership for Roles, and not for creating users/passwords.Thank you.
