Take a look at this reference guide "Integrating Red Hat Enterprise Linux
6"
http://www.redhat.com/rhecm/rest-rhecm/jcr/repository/collaboration/jcr:system/jcr:versionStorage/ae40084d0a052601783f1ea42715cdef/26/jcr:frozenNode/rh:resourceFile

I used one of the methods described in it to join Ubuntu machine into AD.
Next thing I faced is restriction of AD users\groups - how and what is the
best practices to limit logon rights only for specific users\groups, how to
configure sudo and etc.

One more thing that I interested in is the userid\groupid - why should I
bother about them, how do they affect and etc.
