Joining Debian 8 Jessie to Active Directory, and sharing files with Samba + realmd

There are three different ways to join a Samba domain in Linux.
  1. Using pbis-open and samba interop 
    1. Pbis open latest (8.3) works on Jessie (download here) to make your Linux box into a Kerberos client to your AD domain
    2. Sadly Pbis Samba interop does not work with latest Samba 4.1 in Debian 8
  2. Using the classical way of Samba + Winbind pam (although this does not include Kerberos)

  3. Using realmd as below (this is the most modern way I suppose)
