As mentioned in other replies - SelfService ships with RT and doesn't
require configuration, it will be automatically used for users who
aren't marked Privileged.

The easiest thing may be to leverage any existing Single-Sign-On
technology in use at your organization (such as kerberized AD).

Otherwise, writing a one-time-user or single-use URL could be done
leveraging a user's secret token which is currently used for the RSS and
iCal feeds.  This is non-trivial development.
