Linux Distribution that could replace an Active Directory Server


Hello,

I have done some studying about Linux and their directory services. Information that i have currently found are some services which could be installed on a Linux server, like:
Samba4 + Kerberos
OpenLdap
FreeIPA
389 Directory server
Apache directory server

What i actually was wondering is if there is one (Or more) Linux distribution(s), purely made as a replacement for Windows Active directory, without having to install the services myself.

While we're at it, there should be a computer keyboard with just one button that downloads and installs this exact distro. That would save a lot of typing.
