Can Linux Desktops Live in an Active Directory World?
,----[ Quote ]
| Here's the short list of what they made accomplished, all with no
| configuration changes required to the Active Directory system:
|
| * Linux desktops can join Active Directory, becoming actual
| objects within an Active Directory domain (as workstation objects)
|
| * Users can authenticate using their Active Directory credentials
|
| * Proper interfaces present to the user according to Active Directory
| password policy (such as password has expired, do you want to change, and
| failed attempt due to login time restrictions)
|
| * Account credentials are securely cached for offline use (ar
| equirement for mobile users)
|
| * Active Directory-based single sign-on works (Kerberos tickets
| are requested, renewed and refreshed automatically)

They applied the same type of simplifications to Compiz/XGL.
