Active Directory ALIKES


hello there.. i was wondering if it's possible to do something like the active directory "in windows" in Linux Box.. to have controle over the workstations?
please note that the network includes only Windows Boxes the only box with linux is the server

active directory is a whole heap of things fudged together, which bits do you want? ldap is the directory side, samba acts as the domain side roughly speaking. please don't think M$ invented this stuff... they just read the official standards, broke them and invented their blunder of a dorectory system
