Connecting Ubuntu box into Microsoft Active Directory

Hi:
I need to join my Ubuntu 12.04 pc to an Active Directory domain. I know that there are two applications that would help me do the job: LikewiseOpen and Centrify-DirectControl. But, before I choose which one to use, I will really appreciate your expert opinions and experience with these applications. Would like to get your feedback on ease of installation, stability, user friendliness, etc. Thank you very much for your help.

Here's Ubuntu's article on how to do that:

@frankbell:

Thanks for the info. From that documentation I learned about the two applications I mentioned on my first post. What I would like to receive is feedback from people who have already used either of the applications to help me make a decision on what to install in my machine. Thanks again.

Oh, sorry not to have helped.

I haven't had to deal with Active Directory for years.
