With authconfig it's --enablekrb5 and the related ones for setting the
details.  Since you're not worried about group membership krb5's all you need.
If pam_smb type stuff was enough then you don't need to worry about
validation, although it's definitely better if you do.

No, you don't need that much.  You just need permissions to create a machine
object within a specific OU, which is much lower grade.  The password checks
would end up with the AD controllers, but I doubt it's anything they're likely
to notice.

On that side, I pass.
