Connect Ubuntu to Windows Active Directory

Single sign on is a good idea!!! My organization hasĀ  it & it’s Windows Active Directory.

So, I’d to find out how to use it. This is what I came up with.

Installation:

sudo apt-get install likewise-open-gui

sudo domainjoin-gui

… enter the domain -> click “Join Domain” -> enter user&password

fixing “daemon not started” issue by assign likewise-open to (all) run levels

sudo update-rc.d likewise-open defaults

<Ctrl>+<Alt>+BackspaceĀ  to logout

login again with “DOMAIN\\USERNAME”

    After weeks of searching I finally found your post as to how to integrate Ubuntu 7.10 with AD. So, thanks for that and this is the only remaining piece that I have to get it working before we start rolling out Ubuntu in our env. But, when I tried to use my credential it doesn’t work. Am I missing some steps after running update-rc.d? Please let me know

    thanks
