We have a setup so that our Linux users authenticate their passwords
against AD. We use PAM (Plugable Authentication Modules) on Linux. We
added pam_ldap to the logon and SSH folders. (I am writing this from
memory, so it may not be correct in details.). We use the OpenLDAP client
and point it at ADAM. (I have forgotten what that stands for, it was
created by the Windows folks.) We use OpenSSL to encrypt the link.
We don't need Samba or Kerberos. Our goal was SSO (Single Sign-On) and
enforcement of stronger passwords.

Toto, I have a feeling we're not in the mainframe world any more.
