F18, realmd and Active Directory
In Fedora 18 there is no need to mess around with winbindd to log into your work account anymore. SSSD in combination with the new realmd and the new gnome user manager can autodiscover kerberos domains and set up automagically. Active Directory is supported. Just make sure you have realmd installed and you should get 'Enterprise login' as a choice when setting up a new user. A dropbox should list all autodiscovered domains.
I tried this the day after the beta was launched, and I had to set selinux to permissive mode to get it working.
Nice feature for enterprise users!
Make sure to file bugs to selinux-policy if it is still not working in enforcing mode with updates-testing enabled
