Disclaimer I have not done this.

However BIND can interact with AD, this means that all you really have to do is 
update DNS which can in turn update your AD.
Keep in mind that AD has two components LDAP and DNS.  The DNS can be solved by 
using BIND, the LDAP you can edit directly with correct permissions, like any 
other LDAP.
The issue you will be facing is your Domain Policy which may prevent non-AD 
aware system from editing the LDAP.  If that is the case you may have to edit 
the policy or you may have to look into SAMBA as a DC.

Subject: Cobbler and Active Directory DNS

Has anyone used cobbler to create/maintain DNS records for an Active Directory 
DNS server?  We are developing a Linux NAS server that will run both NFS and 
CIFS protocols to serve files so it will be easier to use Active Directory 
authentication and DNS in this setting... Sharing any experiences or ideas on 
how to make this work will be appreciated.
