Leo, If your users have local accounts on the Linux boxes (either from /etc/passwd or from a directory source like LDAP) and the usernames are the same, you can use kerberos authentication (pam_krb5) against AD. Using authconfig, enter the details for the realm in uppercase and then leave the default ports but enter details for a domain controller(s) for the KDC and Admin Server fields. For an NT or Samba domain (2.x.x), use SMB authentication (pam_smb) and enter the name of your domain in the workgroup field and the name of the server(s) in the servers field. pam_smb can accept netbios names for the server but using the FQDN or IP is more certain (especially if across subnets). As mentioned in other replies, winbind will do it but you may get issues with uid's.
