Hi D-E developers,
cross-posting this piece of information to the d-e ML.
Absolutely interesting. :)

Then on the client side, install sssd (apt-get install sssd) and write
something like that in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf:
If Samba v4 is like AD, perhaps the AD backend in sssd version 1.9 can
be used? It would provide simpler sssd.conf configuration. See
<URL:http://jhrozek.fedorapeople.org/sssd/1.9.2/man/sssd-ad.5.html> for
more information.
In Debian Edu, sssd is already used for roaming workstations, and I
suspect it would be a good idea to enable it for all profiles in the
future.
Yep! That's the plan with Edubuntu, in a few months we plan to release
the first version Edubuntu Server along with Edubuntu 13.04, the Samba 4
setup that it installs will mimick an AD domain very closely and as far
as SSSD or a Windows desktop is concerned, it will just be a regular AD
domain that you can join up to your existing AD infrastructure or have
it run standalone. (I'll stop there before I get a wikipedia
reads-like-an-advertisement tag)
I think that will also make it really easy to do the debian-edu /
edubuntu user connectivity that we've had on the radar for a while, I'm
interested in what debian-edu's long-term plans will be for
authentication servers, either way I think it could be a really good
thing for everyone.
