Hi Rene, |

I suppose those users would like to use their existing credentials to |
| 12 |
login to your linux box. If you have ADS and need login only pam_krb5 |
| 13 |
and pam_ldap (or just pam_ldap) might be a good start. For a NT4 style |
| 14 |
domain, samba is required. |

The big picture here is: for AD you get a ticket from the AD KDC (that |
| 17 |
is authorization) and your ID data from AD LDAP with pam_ldap. With NT4 |
| 18 |
domains winbindd from samba does it all in one place, you basically join |
| 19 |
the domain and there is a pam module pam_winbind that makes domain users |
| 20 |
available to PAM aware applications. |
