Set the forums up as directed in their instructions.
You will be setting yourself up twice once as non-active directory and once as active directory and the 2 accounts can't have the same email address. After you've connected using active directory you only need to set up the other users accounts once.
Set yourself and a backup person as administration and host
Ex: Username: jSmith, Display name: jSmith, Rank: Administration, Host Admin - checked
Now set yourself up under an active directory account.
Ex: Username: CompanyName\SmithJ, Display name: CompanyName\SmithJ, Rank: Administration, Host Admin Checked
Go into IIS Manager -> Select your Forum Site -> Authentication -> Set windows authentication = Enabled -> Disable all other authentication.

In the web.config change this line:
to:
You should be good to go.
To remove the Login/Logout on the pages - go to the app.config file and uncomment
