There is a patch attached to some Bugzilla entry adding AD-Integration to
wpkg.js. However it never made its way into the official wpkg.js yet. I planned
to integrate such support into a future release of WPKG but I did not have time
yet to complete the work on it. So you might try the modified version based on
an older WPKG.
One of the reasons I have been reluctant to integrate this code without any
approval is the testing effort attached to it. I do not operate AD here (just
Samba domains) and the modification includes quite a lot of code which will have
to be supported as well.
So for the moment we stick to XML package/host/profile definition.
