Apologies, I should have made clear that the ADS functionality needs to cover 
both:

1. LDAP directory +
2. Windows Domain functionality that supports special Windows client logon 
support (that in fact also requires a bunch of special DNS records that are not 
native to BIND) + Kerberos Single Sign On functionality.

All suggestions welcome.
