Linux and AD Integration

Hi,

Our unit is looking into possibly making a few Linux
machines available
for usage in a lab sometime next semester.  I'm wondering if
anybody has
already linked their Linux machine with Active Directory and
if so, which
flavor of Linux you are using.

Also, do most versions of Linux these days come with
Kerberos components?

Thanks for your $0.02!

Anthony,
I've hooked up my now dead FreeBSD laptop to our AD domain
before. I
vividly remember editing, re-arranging, and cursing quite a
few times to
get it right but how else does one learn something they know
nothing
about ? Most
recent linux distros provide all the necessary components
for integrating with AD.

provides the settings and even the config files.
