I've used this[1] setup when user accounts are in AD and I want auth users in 
Linux via PAM. You need a service account in AD that the saslauthd daemon can 
use to handle the password traffic and then provision all your user accounts in 
openldap.

This works without needing samba, or SSSD, or Kerberos. Additionally, if AD 
falls over for some reason, you just change the userPassword attribute in 
openldap from {SASL}user@realm, to a bonafide {SSHA}gobbledeegook and users can 
auth again.

It does.  I keep finding things on my server (whih has been regularly 
upgraded since at least sarge) that I wonder why they are there.  
Occasionally one is useful.  Usually not.

And when you go wheezy->jessie->ascii, you'll end up with a lot of "undead" 
packages without upgrade candidate or things you put on hold ages ago


Hi, what? Anyway this should happen then with everyone upgrading years 
after years...

Seeing as you have some experience with Active Directory, why not use
Active Directory, but not from Windows, from Samba.

Try having a look here:
